§ 13.193. Advertising media to include licensed individual.

Source The provisions of this § 13.193 adopted October 19, 1973, effective October 20, 1973, 3 Pa.B. 2392; amended November 11, 1977, effective November 12, 1977, 7 Pa.B. 3306; amended December 6, 1991, effective December 7, 1991, 21 Pa.B. 5645.

Notes of Decisions Constitutionality
This regulation does not unconstitutionally restrict the funeral establishment supervisor’s right to freedom of commercial speech, where indicating the name of a supervisor in all advertisements lessens the possibility that the consumer may be deceived at little or no inconvenience to the funeral director. Kleese v. State Board of Funeral Directors, 738 A.2d 523 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1999).
