Description
ARGUED OCTOBER 1, 2002 Pursuant to an agreement with the Government, Mark Fuller pled guilty to ""check kiting"" in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1014. He later filed a motion to withdraw his guilty plea. The district court denied the motion. Mr. Fuller submits that the attorney who represented him at his hearing on the motion had an actual conflict of interest and, as a result, rendered ineffective assistance of counsel; he seeks a new hearing on the motion to withdraw his guilty plea with ""conflict-free"" counsel. Because the record affirmatively demonstrates that counsel's performance at the original hearing was not inadequate, the Supreme Court's recent decision in Mickens v. Taylor, 122 S. Ct. 1237 (2002), requires that we affirm the judgment of the district court.
