With the January 2019 retirement of Westmoreland County civil court judge Anthony G. Marsili, effective November 19, 2018, all newly filed civil and orphans’ court cases that would have been assigned to Marsili will be assigned on an alternating basis between Judge Smail and Judge Scherer.

Any existing Judge Marsili cases that require judicial attention will be reassigned to Judge Smail or Judge Scherer.  Counsel should contact the Civil Court Administrator’s office for the reassignment.

When a third civil judge is assigned in the future, all “Judge Marsili” cases will be reassigned back to the new civil judge. 

Estate and audits for 2019 will be handled by Judge Scherer and Judge Smail.
