Charlie Javice, the founder of financial aid startup Frank, is reportedly seeking a presidential pardon from Donald Trump.

Javice, convicted of defrauding JPMorgan Chase in a $175 million acquisition, aims to avoid her 85-month federal prison sentence.

The Fraud Case

  • Javice was convicted of fraud and conspiracy in March 2025.
  • Her sentence is 85 months in federal prison.
  • The fraud involved fabricating millions of fake customer identities to inflate Frank’s user base.
  • This was done to mislead JPMorgan Chase during its acquisition of Frank.
  • Javice is currently appealing her conviction, despite overwhelming evidence.

Pardon Efforts

Her efforts to secure clemency are reportedly leveraging the Trump administration’s upcoming 250th-anniversary clemency push.

This move is widely seen as a desperate attempt to circumvent her prison term.
