Latest News about Charlie Javice
A federal judge rejected Charlie Javice's appeal to overturn her fraud conviction. Javice argued that two law clerks involved in her case had job offers from JPMorgan's outside law firm, claiming potential bias. The rejection means her conviction stands, and she remains free pending further appeals but is required to report to prison once the process concludes.
Charlie Javice was convicted in March 2025 on charges of conspiracy, bank fraud, and wire fraud for duping JPMorgan Chase into buying her company Frank for $175 million in 2021 by fabricating records to claim over 4 million customers when it actually had fewer than 300,000. The 33-year-old founder, who had been free on $2 million bail since her 2023 arrest, was sentenced shortly after to more than seven years (85 months) in prison. The judge allowed her to remain free pending her appeal of the verdict.

Career
| Overview | Charlie began her entrepreneurial journey while studying, creating an online platform called PoverUp to aid students in establishing micro-finance clubs. She later founded Frank in 2016, a website designed to assist students with their FAFSA applications. In 2017, the United States Department of Education accused Frank of potentially misleading customers to believe it was affiliated with the US government, forcing the company to change its website from frankfafsa.com to frank.com. In September 2021, she sold Frank to JPMorgan Chase for $175 million by falsely claiming over 4 million customers when it had fewer than 300,000, and was appointed managing director at JPMorgan overseeing student-focused products. She was suspended in September 2022 and terminated in November 2022 following a lawsuit. In January 2023, she was charged with fraud along with Olivier Amar, Frank's chief growth and acquisition officer. She was convicted in March 2025 of conspiracy, bank fraud, and wire fraud charges. |
