The Public Interest Law Center: 2023-2024 Pro Bono Report

June 25, 2024

O’Melveny counsel Anne T. Marchitello was highlighted in The Public Interest Law Center’s Pro Bono Partner Spotlight as part of the organization’s 2023-2024 Pro Bono Report. Marchitello was recognized for her role in the lawsuit against the state of Pennsylvania over claims that the public-school funding model violated the education clause and equal protection provisions in the state’s constitution. “Education is one of the most important parts of a child’s life. My mom was a middle school English teacher for over 40 years and my husband taught high school English in Philadelphia for two years,” Marchitello said. “When I joined O’Melveny in 2019 and learned that we were partnering with the Law Center and ELC on this monumentally important lawsuit, I immediately knew that I had to join the team to help fight for equitable school funding in Pennsylvania.”
