Court interpreters play a vital role in court proceedings that involve foreign language speaking individuals as litigants or witnesses. Court interpretation is a highly specialized form of interpreting that cannot be effectively performed without commensurate specialized training and skills. The court interpreter’s job is to produce a linguistically true and legally appropriate interpretation of the meaning from source to target language.
