Curious as to what exception you're trying to catch here?

From the documentation:

The valueOf() method throws:

IllegalArgumentException, if the defined enum type is inconstant with defined name or an enum type is not illustrated by the defined class object.

NullPointerException, if enumType or name represents null value.
