Eon David, Appellant Pro Se. Lawrence Patrick Auld, OFFICE OF THE
UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Greensboro, North Carolina, for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Eon David seeks to appeal the district court’s order denying
his petition filed under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2254 (West Supp. 1999). We
have reviewed the record and the district court’s opinion accepting
the recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability and
dismiss the appeal on the reasoning of the district court. See
United States v. David, Nos. CR-95-206; CA-98-917-1 (M.D.N.C. Mar.
18, 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 order from which David appeals was filed on
March 17, 1999, it was entered on the district court’s docket sheet
on March, 18, 1999. March 18, 1999, is therefore the effective
date of the district court’s decision. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 58 and
79(a); see also Wilson v. Murray, 806 F.2d 1232, 1234-35 (4th Cir.
1986).
