Interpreter Services

The Fiftieth Judicial District (Butler County Courts) provides language services for individuals who are limited English proficient (LEP) or are deaf or hard of hearing. Our policy aims to provide meaningful language access for all individuals who are LEP to ensure that all persons have due process and equal access to all judicial proceedings. These services are free of charge.
