Request for Court Interpreter

The Second Judicial Circuit is committed to providing qualified interpreters to limited-English-proficient and deaf persons in order to eliminate communication barriers that may prevent full participation in court proceedings necessary to ensure due process and equal access to the courts. Spoken language and sign language interpreters are available to you. You must request an interpreter in writing. Click here to complete an interpreter form for a Court Interpreter.
