Blank Rome partner Stephen M.

Gerry Award in recognition of his humanitarianism and outstanding contributions to the administration of justice in New Jersey. Orlofsky was honored at an award and scholarship program last October at the Tavistock Country Club. There, the Foundation also presented the Judge John F. Gerry Memorial Scholarship. In his practice, Orlofsky handles complex litigation and alternative dispute resolution, in federal and state civil and criminal courts, both at the appellate and trial level. Gerry was appointed to a judgeship in the District of New Jersey by President Gerald R. Ford in 1974, and became the district court's chief judge in 1987, serving in that position until 1994. The foundation established the John F. Gerry Award in 1995, and the Judge John F. Gerry Memorial Scholarship in 2002.
