TAURO, Chief District Judge.
Appellant George Bucuvalas appeals the District Court's denial of his petition to vacate his sentence made pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255. Essentially, Bucuvalas asserts that his Sixth Amendment right to effective assistance of counsel was violated because his attorney's fees were paid by his co-defendants and because his attorney advised him not to testify on his own behalf.
