§ 401. Scope.

 These procedures apply only to interpreters who are included on the roster maintained by the Interpreter Certification Program (ICP). Staff interpreters who are employees of their respective judicial districts may also be subject to additional personnel and human resources policies in the districts where they are employed.

 These procedures apply to complaints about roster interpreters who have allegedly engaged in unethical, unprofessional, or criminal conduct in the course of performing their interpreter duties and, in some instances, of unethical conduct outside the scope of interpreting.

Comment

   Separate and distinct from the procedures under this chapter is the Language Access Complaint Form, available on the Language Access & Interpreter Program page of the UJS website, http:/www.pacourts.us. Anyone can utilize the Language Access Complaint Form to make the court aware of other language access problems, such as where no interpreter is provided.
