Frank founder Charlie Javice is reportedly asking Trump for a pardon
Javice isn't the only convicted former tech executive looking for Trump's help.

Charlie Javice, the startup founder who was sentenced to seven years in prison last fall, is seeking a pardon from President Donald Trump, according to the Wall Street Journal.

Javice was convicted of defrauding JPMorgan Chase after the bank acquired her financial services startup Frank for $175 million. The bank accused Javice of lying about how many customers the startup had, with former Frank employees testifying that she’d asked them to create fake user data.

In addition to asking Trump for a pardon, Javice is appealing her conviction. JPMorgan, meanwhile, has tried to get out of paying her legal bills.

The Trump administration is reportedly considering a plan to commemorate the United States’ 250th birthday with 250 pardons. The president has already pardoned hundreds of people during his second term, mostly white-collar criminals, including Travis Milton, founder of hydrogen trucking startup Nikola; Silk Road creator Russ Ulbricht; and Binance founder Changpeng Zhao.

Javice isn’t the only convicted former tech executive hoping for Trump’s help: Sam Bankman-Fried, the FTX co-founder serving a 25-year sentence for money laundering and fraud, recently applied for a pardon.
