Opinion

PER CURIAM.

This appeal presents solely a question of law. The law is settled by our previous discussion in Finley v. United States of America, 5th Cir., 266 F.2d 29. There being no requirement under 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 that the trial court hold a hearing on a Section 2255 petition where only a question of law is involved, we conclude that the trial court did not error in denying the petition.

The judgment is

Affirmed.
