Before JAMES DICKSON PHILLIPS, MURNAGHAN and WILKINS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:


1
Lascell William Simmons appeals from the district court's order refusing relief under 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2255.  Our review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that this appeal is without merit.  Accordingly, although we grant leave to appeal in forma pauperis, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court.*   United States v. Simmons, C/A No. 87-3395-S (D.Md. Jan. 12, 1988) 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.


2
AFFIRMED.



*
 Even if a stipulation entered into between Simmons and the government was misstated and transcribed as misstated at trial, the error provides no basis for relief under 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2255 in light of the written stipulation, executed by the parties and introduced into evidence at trial, indicating that the victim was a federal officer on the date of the offense.  The written stipulation is in accord with the conduct and intentions of the parties as manifested by the record
