PER CURIAM:
Michael K. Brown appeals the district court’s order granting
summary judgment in favor of Defendants in Brown’s civil action.
We have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and
find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning
of the district court. See Brown v. Henderson, No. CA-99-1653-AW
(D. Md. Feb. 10, 2000).* We dispense with oral argument because
the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the ma-
terials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
AFFIRMED
*
Although the district court’s order is marked as “filed” on
February 9, 2000, the district court’s records show that it was
entered on the docket sheet on February 10, 2000. Pursuant to
Rules 58 and 79(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, it is
the date that the order was entered on the docket sheet that we
take as the effective date of the district court’s decision. See
Wilson v. Murray, 806 F.2d 1232, 1234-35 (4th Cir. 1986).
