Federal prosecutors are asking a judge to investigate whether or not an attorney for Charlie Javice, the founder of the student loan fintech start-up Frank, may have a conflict of interest, given that he represented her in a prior investigation unrelated to her pending fraud case.

David Siegal of Mintz, Levin, Cohn, Ferris, Glovsky and Popeo is not accused of wrongdoing, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York. But prosecutors do want the judge to bar Siegal from cross-examining witnesses or making arguments relating to matters in which he was personally involved.
