PER CURIAM:
Ricky Allen Bradley appeals the district court’s order denying
Bradley’s motion for an extension of time to file a 28 U.S.C.A.
§ 2255 (West Supp. 2000) motion and for materials needed to prepare
such a motion. 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. United States v.
Bradley, No. CR-95-75-V (W.D.N.C. July 6, 2000).* We dispense with
oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-
ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would
not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
*
Although the district court’s order is marked as “filed” on
July 5, 2000, the district court’s records show that it was entered
on the docket sheet on July 6, 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).
