Charles Allen Marvin, known as Corky Marvin (July 18, 1929 – April 27, 2003), was a district attorney and a state circuit court judge in North Louisiana from 1971 until his retirement in 1999.


Marvin was born to Mr. and Mrs. Schuyler L. Marvin in Jonesville in Catahoula Parish in northeastern Louisiana. He studied journalism at Louisiana Tech University in Ruston, where he was the outstanding graduate in his field and an editor of the student newspaper, The Tech Talk. He was later involved in fund-raising drives for Louisiana Tech. Marvin then worked for a year as editor of the weekly newspaper the Delhi Dispatch in Delhi in Richland Parish, east of Monroe. After service in the United States Air Force during the Korean War, Marvin attended Louisiana State University Law Center in Baton Rouge, from which he graduated after three years of study in 1957. In 1989, Louisiana Tech named him a "Distinguished Alumnus". In 1962, Marvin became an original board member, along with another Minden attorney, Luther Moore, and later Caddo Parish Sheriff Don Hathaway, of the Louisiana Tech Foundation. In 1990, the LSU Law Center named Marvin an honorary member of the Order of the Coif and inducted him into its hall of fame.
