(NASHVILLE, Tenn.) - Country music singer-songwriter Sara Evans and her husband Craig Schelske a native of Salem, Oregon appeared in court Thursday that resulted in a mutual agreement between the two in matters involving their finances and children.

Their divorce was well-publicized in the media after Evans charged that Schelske was emotionally and verbally abusive, drank heavily, and watched porn frequently in their home.

During the couple’s court appearance they agreed to an equal split of $274,000 that Evans says Schelske withdrew from their joint checking accounts the day she filed for divorce, October 12th.

Boquist won by nearly a 2 to 1 margin.
