A federal judge rejected a bid for a new trial for disgraced Theranos CEO Elizabeth Holmes, who now is facing up to 20 years prison for defrauding investors at her blood-testing company.

SAN JOSE — A federal judge rejected a bid for a new trial for disgraced Theranos CEO Elizabeth Holmes after concluding a key prosecution witness's recent remorseful attempt to contact her wasn't enough to award her another chance to avoid a potential prison sentence for defrauding investors at her blood-testing company.

Besides rejecting Holmes' claim that a 10-minute visit Rosendorff made to her Silicon Valley home in August raised questions about misconduct at her trial, Davila also rebuffed two other motions for another trial in his 15-page ruling. One motion revolved around a description prosecutors made about her former lover and business partner, Rawesh"Sunny" Balwani, during closing arguments.

Following a jury's conviction of her in January, Holmes' legal team first tried to persuade Davila to throw out the verdicts as irrational. When that effort failed, Holmes lawyers last month filed a motion seeking a new trial, based on an uninvited visit that Rosendorff made to a palatial estate she shares with her current romantic partner, William"Billy" Evans, who also is the father of the son she had a few months before her trial began.
