Syllabus

The record does not support a finding that trial counsel was ineffective for only entering an oral motion for recusal at appellant's plea hearing and failing to file an affidavit of disqualification pursuant to R.C. 2703.01 based on the trial judge's disclosure that his brother was employed at another branch of the bank where appellant committed an aggravated robbery. Judgment affirmed.
