A party who anticipates needing the services of an interpreter in a court proceeding must
make the necessary arrangements at its own expense and file a written notice at least 14 days
before the proceeding in which the interpreter’s services will be used. The notice must include
the name and credentials of the interpreter, the name of the witness or witnesses requiring the
interpreter, and the reason the interpreter is needed. Any party anticipating the need for an
American Sign Language interpreter must contact the assigned judge’s courtroom administrator
at least 14 days before the proceeding.
