On December 20, 2011, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania held its Investiture Ceremony for the newly appointed Honorable Carlota M. Bohm.

Judge Bohm started her career as a law clerk to two Bankruptcy Judges and has concentrated her practice primarily in bankruptcy since 1981. Prior to being appointed and sworn in, Judge Bohm was a Bankruptcy Trustee on the U.S. Trustee’s Panel for the Western District of Pennsylvania and an attorney with the firm of Houston Harbaugh in Pittsburgh.

The United States Bankruptcy Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania sought a new judicial appointment after the untimely passing of the Honorable M. Bruce McCullough in November 2010.
