Chess Java

Hi guys I would like someone to help me put all this together.
It.s supposed to be a text based chess game capable of AI. I am stuck here because it is returning null when the     pieces.isValid(Baseboard[curY][curY].toString(), desY);    is called
Feel free to change anything. If their is any possibility of getting this up to speed I will appreciate it.

that helped but I have one problem. I can.t validate the moves. The pawn for example moves anywhere! And the others as well.
The other pieces are similar classes as the Pawn class.

Try this one:
public void makeMove()
	// make the move with the coords suplied from askMove method
	{
		if (Baseboard[curX][curY] != null
				&& Baseboard[curX][curY].isValid(Baseboard[curX][curY]
						.toString(), desY)) {
			Baseboard[desX][desY] = Baseboard[curX][curY]; // Move the piece.

			Baseboard[curX][curY] = null;
			
			reDraw();
		} else {
			System.out.println("Can't go here");
		}
	}
