Daniel Oriakhi, Appellant Pro Se. Lynne Ann Battaglia, United States Attorney, Robert Reeves Harding, Assistant United States Attorney, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM:

Daniel Oriakhi seeks to appeal the district court’s orders

denying his motion filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp.

1999), his motion for court records, and his motion for reconsid-

eration. We have reviewed the record and the district court’s

opinions and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we deny a cer-

tificate of appealability and dismiss the appeal on the reasoning

of the district court. See United States v. Oriakhi, Nos. CR-92-

283-MJG; CA-98-2207-HNM (D. Md. Mar. 11, 1999*; Mar. 23, 1999). 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.

DISMISSED

* Although the district court’s order is marked as “filed” on March 10, 1999, the district court’s records show that it was entered on the docket sheet on March 11, 1999. It is the date the order was entered on the docket sheet that we take as the effective date of the district court’s decision. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 58 and 79(a); Wilson v. Murray, 806 F.2d 1232, 1234-35 (4th Cir. 1986).
