Startup CEO Seeks Trump Pardon

Charlie Javice, the founder of the now-defunct fintech startup Frank, is reportedly seeking a presidential pardon from Donald Trump. Javice faces federal fraud charges related to allegations that she misled JPMorgan Chase about the size of Frank's customer base before its acquisition. The news comes as JPMorgan continues its legal pursuit of Javice, seeking to recover the $175 million it paid for the company. This development adds a significant political dimension to the ongoing legal battle, potentially complicating matters for both Javice and JPMorgan.
