Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas Judge Lisa Rau told The Legal on Wednesday that she is planning to leave the First Judicial District in the coming months.

In an interview Wednesday, the longtime Philadelphia judge said that, after 18 years as a judge, she will be leaving the bench in two months. Rau did not immediately disclose why she is stepping down from the bench, or what her next steps will be, except to say that “a new adventure calls.”
