Aaron Hernandez apparently is in financial distress due to all the court proceedings he's facing these days.

Is Aaron Hernandez Using His 'Charm' To Get What He Wants Even From Behind Bars?

Earlier this month a report surfaced from Fox Boston hinting that the former NFL star is facing major money issues given his recent conviction for first-degree murder in the Odin Lloyd case and numerous other civil suits pending against him. He also is facing another murder trial, which is actually a double-murder.

The former football star's 2005 Hummer was apparently up for sale even though he's behind bars, which made many speculate that he's attempting to hide his assets.

Is Aaron Hernandez Selling Off His Stuff To Fund His Lawyers Or Hide His Assets?

Amongst those speculating the worst of Hernandez is Lloyd's mother Ursula Ward's lawyer Douglas Sheff.

Just last Thursday, Sheff's law firm partner Frank Federico had a bit of a tit-for-tat with Hernandez's lawyer John D. Fitzpatrick during a hearing.

The Herald News reported that Fitzpatrick accused Ward's representation for creating a media circus in regard to the Hummer and more.

"What plaintiff's counsel should be interested in is serving the interests of his client, who is a tragically bereaved mother of the deceased in this case. Instead of doing that, we have a plaintiff's counsel who holds press conferences, promising some kind of campaign to drag my client needlessly into court in chains for questioning, brilliant questioning no doubt, by plaintiff's counsel. It is preposterous," Hernandez's lawyer claimed.

Fitzpatrick also dropped some shocking news that Hernandez's money supply has run dry. He told the court that his client has only received a "fraction" of the $40 million he was contracted to with the New England Patriots in August 2012.

With that in mind, Hernandez is paying all of his legal fees and supporting his fiancée Shayanna Jenkins and their daughter.

"There's nothing left here as a practical matter. There's just nothing left here," Fitzpatrick stated, but Ward's representation wasn't buying that.

Sheff and his firm want Hernandez to subject himself to the formal discovery process in court to verify if his assets are truly drained.
