PER CURIAM:
George J. Foxx appeals the district court's orders granting
summary judgment to the Defendant in this employment discrimination
action and denying his motion filed under Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e).
We have reviewed the record and the district court's opinions and
find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning
of the district court. See Foxx v. Danzig, No. CA-99-558-A (E.D.
Va. Oct. 1 & Nov. 9, 1999).* We dispense with oral argument be-
cause 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 orders are marked as “filed”
on September 28 and November 5, 1999, the district court’s records
show that the orders were entered on the docket sheet on October 1
and November 9, 1999, respectively. Pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 58
and 79(a), we consider the date the orders were entered as the
effective date of the district court’s decision. See Wilson v.
Murray, 806 F.2d 1232, 1234-35 (4th Cir. 1986).
