PER CURIAM:
Jerome Frierson-Bey appeals the district court’s order denying
relief on his civil rights complaint.1 We have reviewed the record
and the district court’s opinion accepting the magistrate judge’s
recommendation and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we af-
firm on the reasoning of the district court. See Frierson-Bey v.
Warden, No. CA-97-2721-3-10BC (D.S.C. Oct. 8, 1998).2 We dispense
with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are
adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument
would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
1
The magistrate judge properly construed the complaint as one
filed under Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of the Federal
Bureau of Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388 (1971).
2
Although the district court’s order is marked as “filed” on
October 7, 1998, the district court’s record discloses that it was
entered on the docket sheet on October 8, 1998, which is the date
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); Fed.
R. Civ. P. 58, 79(a).
