So, how long are we thinking she gets "family leave" in the court system? Maybe 3 months no trial action?

She has a motions hearing on 5/4 & 5/5 & trial starts 8/31. I would think there will be hearings between May & August.

May 6, 2021
Elizabeth Holmes’ jet-setting, lavish lifestyle as CEO of Theranos took center stage on Thursday as her attorneys argued it was irrelevant to her criminal fraud case.

“What she wore, where she stayed, how she flew and what she ate has nothing to do with this trial,” said Holmes’ attorney Kevin Downey, adding that its “inflammatory commentary that could do great damage.”

But the government strongly disagreed, saying Holmes’ opulent way of living was bolstered by the alleged fraud.
[.....]
The judge pushed back on the government’s argument, comparing her benefits to other CEOs and asking “what’s the value that she’s at the Four Seasons or a Motel 6?”
[.....]
The judge is expected to make rulings on which evidence jurors can hear this week.
