The trustee presiding over the bankruptcy believes Girardi ran his law firm like a Ponzi scheme for over a decade. Jayne is accused of benefitting from the scam as Girardi's firm paid the bills for Jayne's company EJ Global for years. She reportedly racked up over $25 million in expenses from 2008 until 2020.

In one federal lawsuit, Girardi is accused of embezzling millions meant for orphans and widows, who lost their loved ones in a plane crash. Jayne is a named defendant in that lawsuit as they believe she filed a "sham" divorce to hide assets. Jayne has publicly denied all allegations of wrongdoing but has yet to respond in court.

The trustee is suing her for the return of the $25 million Girardi's firm spent on her bills. Jayne continues to try to remove the lawyer investigating her as part of the Chapter 7 case but has yet to convince a judge.
