(Camp Hill, PA) - The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania has announced that Marvin J. Rudnitsky, managing partner at Rudnitsky & Hackman of Selinsgrove, has been appointed Vice Chair of the Supreme Court Disciplinary Board.

The 16-member Disciplinary Board is an independent agency created by the Supreme Court with complete oversight and investigative power to review the conduct of Pennsylvania lawyers and to assure compliance by all attorneys to the Pennsylvania Rules of Professional Conduct.

The Disciplinary Board's goals are to protect the general public, to maintain a high standard of integrity in the legal profession, and to safeguard the reputation of the courts of Pennsylvania. The Board is comprised of 14 attorneys and two non-lawyers from across Pennsylvania, who meet regularly to review and decide cases, policy and Board administrative matters.

A member of the Pennsylvania Bar Association's Board of Governors, Mr. Rudnitsky served more than 20 years in the Pennsylvania Bar Association's House of Delegates, chaired its Solo & Small Firm Section, was editor of the organization's publication entitled, "Lawyer to Lawyer Network Directory," and received its Special Achievement Award in 1994 and 2000. He was twice elected by the lawyers of Pennsylvania to represent them in the American Bar Association's House of Delegates.

Mr. Rudnitsky was appointed to the Disciplinary Board in April 2000. In the same year, he was appointed to the Board of Directors of the Pennsylvania Bar Institute (PBI) and is currently the President of PBI's Board of Directors.

A graduate of Pennsylvania State University, B.A., and University of Pittsburgh School of Law, J.D., Mr. Rudnitsky is a Senior Faculty member at The Institute for Wealth Strategies Planning at Michigan State University. He is also a contributing author to two books on estate planning, Strictly Business: Planning Strategies for Privately Owned Businesses and Giving: Philanthropy for Everyone.
