* Although the district court’s order is marked as “filed” on
February 10, 2000, the district court’s records show that it was
entered on the docket sheet on February 15, 2000. Pursuant to
Rules 58 and 79(a) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, 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 Wilson v.
Murray, 806 F.2d 1232, 1234-35 (4th Cir. 1986).

PER CURIAM:
John E. Anderson, Jr., a Virginia inmate, appeals the district
court’s order denying relief on his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp.
1999) complaint under 28 U.S.C.A. § 1915A (West Supp. 1999). We
have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion and find
that this appeal is frivolous. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal
on the reasoning of the district court. See Anderson v. Riverside
Jail Authoritative Comm., No. CA-99-1733-AM (E.D. Va. Feb. 15,
2000).* 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
