I am an attorney who is retiring, but I am the executor on a number of estates. Can I remain in that capacity if I place myself on inactive status?

Inactive status is just a euphemism for administrative suspension. About five or six years ago, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court changed the terminology to being on inactive status from administrative suspension. The problem with that term (administrative suspension) is that it has a negative connotation that can create problems since it is misleading and suggests misconduct.
