About The Fundamentals Of Court Interpretation

This volume explores court interpreting from a legal, linguistic, and pragmatic vantage. It aims to help standardize practice among court interpreters by providing useful guidelines for the judiciary, attorneys, and other court personnel.

All fifty states have either statutes, rules of procedure, judicial rules, or case law relating to limited-English, non-English speaking, or language-handicapped witnesses.

Invaluable for both practitioners and institutions which offer legal translation or interpreting programs, this book has become the standard reference book worldwide.
