See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM: Margaret Jefferson appeals the district court’s order denying relief on her 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 1999) complaint. We have reviewed the record and the district’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See Jefferson v. Wamsley, No. CA-96-3731-WMN (D.

Md. Apr. 12, 1999).* We deny Jefferson’s motion to vacate judg- ment. 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

* Although the district court’s order is marked as “filed” on April 9, 1999, the district court’s records show that it was entered on the docket sheet on April 12, 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).
