Solomon pursuant to Rule of Judicial Administration 1701, is DISMISSED. Rule 1701 specifies that, “[f]or purposes of this rule, judge and magisterial district judge includes those judicial officers in active judicial service or senior status.” Pa.R.J.A. 1701(a). This provision has no apparent application to a subpoena that would be issued on Judge Solomon, as that jurist’s term as a senior judge expired on December 31, 2020.
