Assisted listening devices for court participants with a hearing impairment are available in all courtrooms. When possible, participants should coordinate with the presiding judge’s Courtroom Deputy in advance of the court proceeding to arrange for a headset or hearing loop.  Alternatively, participants may contact the Court’s Access Coordinator for assistance via email at courtaccess@lamd.uscourts.gov.

If a court participant requires a sign language interpreter or other service to assist with a hearing impairment or communication disabilities, participants should coordinate with the presiding judge’s Courtroom Deputy or the Court’s Access Coordinator courtaccess@lamd.uscourts.gov.  Interpretation or other services will require advanced planning, so please contact the Court as soon as the need is identified so arrangements can be made.
