The Boston Bar Association is also sympathetic, having recently organized a task force to assist in making a press for additional funding from Beacon Hill to hire more interpreters and to train and certify new and existing interpreters. Peter Krupp, a member of this BBA task force, is trying to collect information and anecdotes from criminal defense practitioners who have had experiences with interpreters in the state courts. He would like to hear your comments about the quality of the interpreters available in the state courts, information about problems or issues you have had with scheduling cases as a result of not being able to get an interpreter, clients wrongly convicted as a result of interpreter error, and any other issues, including ways to improve the system of providing interpreters in the state courts. Attorneys can easily type and adapt the checklist to his or her own style and print it out. Waiting room, reception area, copier, fax, occasional reception, secure building, good Dorchester location and a friendly environment.
