PER CURIAM: Jihbin Hwang appeals the district court’s order denying relief on his civil complaint.1 We have reviewed the record and the dis- trict court’s opinion and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See Hwang v. City of Greenbelt, No. CA-99-3825-PJM (D. Md. Apr. 28, 2000).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

We have considered only Hwang’s 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 1999) claim because that is the only issue Hwang raised in his informal brief. See 4th Circuit Local Rule 34(b).

Although the district court’s order is marked as “filed” on April 27, 2000, the district court’s records show that it was entered on the docket sheet on April 28, 2000. Pursuant to Rules 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.
