San Francisco (CNN Business) Elizabeth Holmes, founder of failed blood-testing startup Theranos, will go to trial August 4, 2020, a federal judge ruled Friday in San Jose, California.

The court will begin hearing evidence that day with jury selection beginning the week prior on July 28.

Holmes was indicted on federal wire fraud charges in June 2018 and stepped down from the company minutes before the charges were made public.

She and former Theranos COO and president Ramesh "Sunny" Balwani allegedly engaged in schemes to defraud investors, doctors and patients, according to a release from the US Attorney's office at the time.

Holmes and Balwani are both charged with two counts of conspiracy to commit wire fraud and nine counts of wire fraud.
