Interpreters A court interpreter is a person who interprets in a court proceeding (e.g., arraignment, motion, pretrial conference, preliminary hearing, deposition, trial) for a witness or party who speaks or understands little or no English or is hearing impaired. Court interpreters must accurately interpret for individuals with a high level of education and an expansive vocabulary, as well as persons with very limited language skills without changing the language register of the speaker. Interpreters are also sometimes responsible for translating written documents, often of a legal nature, from English into the target language and from the target language into English. Please see Evidence Code Section 754 for information regarding the appointment of a Sign Language Interpreter. The court provides interpreters for all case types. Parties and Counsel are requested to provide at least five days notice to the court's Interpreter Coordinator of any need for interpreting to ensure these services may be arranged on a timely basis. The interpreter's role shall be limited to that of interpreting, not offering opinions or suggestions. Click here for more information on interpreters.
