““One of the provisions of the [2014] divorce judgment ordered the wife to execute the settlement check ... and to use the proceeds to ‘extinguish the legal services debt owed by [the husband] to .... [Jerry] Blevins for the, legal defense provided by attorney Blevins to the [husband] in the United States District Court Criminal case which led to the [husband’s] conviction and incarceration in the federal penitentiary under a life sentence.’ The check had been made payable only to the husband.””
