¶1Howard Walker, pro se.

¶2David M. Satz, Jr., U. S. Atty., Robert R. Blasi, Asst. U. S. Atty., Newark, N. J., for appellee.

¶3Before BIGGS, Chief Judge, and KALODNER and STALEY, Circuit Judges.

¶4PER CURIAM.

¶5The moving papers in this case indicate that the petitioner-appellant actually seeks to have the judgment of conviction and the judgment of sentence against him vacated and set aside and that he has appealed from the refusal of the court below to grant the relief he seeks. Though the matter is far from clear in view of the state of the pleadings, the petitioner acting pro se, we are of the view that the petitioner in effect is seeking relief under Section 2255, Title 28, U.S.C. An examination of the record and of the law convinces us that the trial court committed no error. Consequently the order denying the motion to vacate the judgment of conviction and the judgment of sentence will be affirmed.
