HMCTS Interpreting Reports
ALS failures cause "chaos" in Nottingham and Stoke-on-Trent
I was at Nottingham Magistrates' Court for AIT and the usher told me that they had to adjourn the matter as the ALS can't provide an interpreter
A weekend break... in prison
'The case was not even called due to the lack of an interpreter and the defendant will have to spend the weekend in prison'
ALS incompetence results in a second adjournment of the same case
Huntington Magistrates' adjourned the case for the second time on Thursday 9th of February
Court staff missing the 'old' interpreters
The court clerk signed my form and asked if I was one of the old interpreters. I have never been so happy to be called old! She said: "You can tell. Take it as a compliment".
