Biography & Early Wealth Journey

Attorneys for Holmes say the added stipulation isn't fair and goes beyond Holmes's "limited financial resources." Their filing goes on:

"Mr. Balwani's amended judgment says nothing about what the Court intended for Ms. Holmes' restitution schedule. Ms. Holmes and Mr. Balwani have different financial resources and the Court has appropriately treated them differently."

For example, the filing says, Balwani was slapped with a $25,000 fine for his role in the Theranos debacle, while no such fine was imposed on Holmes.

At the peak of Theranos's financial success, Holmes was worth some $4.5 billion. Today her court filings claim the company's collapse has completely wiped her out, and with no financial assets left and no hope of repairing her image in the business world, $250 a month will be too much for her to afford by the time she gets out of prison.

Primary Income Streams & Multi-Million Contracts

The Justice Department filing says Holmes will be on the hook for $250 per month or "at least ten percent of her income," but she would likely have to pay whichever amount was greater.

That's unless Holmes's lawyers are successful in getting the payment schedule reduced.
