This workshop is designed to equip interpreters with the tools they need to navigate the elements of jury duty. In three short hours will discuss the Voir Dire process that transpires during jury selection, how to handle sidebars, the significance of courtroom positioning and how it affects the interpreter’s visibility and access to both the deaf client and the legal teams.
In addition, we will review the deliberation process and the interpreter’s role during this critical phase of selection, and finally, the intricacies of interpreting the instructions to the jury. Participants will leave the workshop armed with techniques necessary to convey precise language, maintain the appropriate tone, and handle challenging legal terminology.
Presenter Anna McDuffie, BS, CI, CT, SC:L, NIC; Core Certified Healthcare Interpreter has over 20 years of experience in legal interpreting.
