SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Feb 24 – JPMorgan
Chase bought a
start-up
called Frank,
which claimed
to have 4
million
students
signed up to
file their
FAFSA forms,
for $175
million. Then
Chase learned
Frank had only
300,000
customers.
On
April 4, 2023,
Frank founder
Ms. Charlie
Javice was
brought before
U.S. District
Court for the
Southern
District of
New York
Magistrate
Judge Barbara
C. Moses and was
freed on $2
million bond.

City Press
live tweeted
the more than
two hour hearing
on January 23,
here.
Trial was
delayed one
week to
February 18.
On
February 4 the
defendants reduced
their request
to eight
staffers. Full thread
here
In the
February 20
openings, both
defendants'
lawyers hammered JPM
Chase, with
Javice's Baez
naming Jamie Dimon
and his hunger
for acquisitions. The
US Attorney's
Office
objected; Judge
Hellerstein
said the case
is not about
JPM Chase.
We'll see.
Full thread here.
On February
21 as Houston
Cowan took the
stand,
then paused
due to audio
problems,
Javice filed that "evidence
and argument
regarding
Bank-1 should
be excluded."
