The Judge William M. Marutani Fellowship

The Judge William M. Marutani Fellowship was established by the Asian Pacific American Bar Association of Pennsylvania (APABA-PA) in partnership with the Philadelphia Bar Foundation.

The Fellowship serves to honor the legacy of Judge Marutani, the first Asian American judge in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and a distinguished member of the judiciary who served both the Asian American community and the community at large for many years. Judge Marutani’s exemplary career is a model for students committed to public service.

Providing stipends to first-year Asian American law students from area law schools to take summer internships with public interest organizations or government agencies (including the judiciary) in the Greater Philadelphia area, a primary objective of the Marutani Fellowship is to provide these law students an opportunity to gain experience in areas of the law in which Asian American attorneys are underrepresented.
