Del. P.J.I. Civ. § 3.7A
Courtroom Interpretation –[Introductory Instruction]
COURTROOM INTERPRETATION
This Court seeks a fair trial for all parties regardless of the language a person
speaks and regardless of how well a person may, or may not, use the English
language. Bias against or for persons who have little or no proficiency in English,
or because they do not use English, is not allowed. The fact that any party requires
an interpreter must not influence you in any way. Although some of you may know
the non-English language used, it is important that all jurors consider the same
evidence. Therefore, you must base your decision on the evidence presented in the
English interpretation. You must disregard any different meaning of the non-English
words.
{If Spanish interpretation is to be used, recite the following translation}:
Esta Corte busca un juicio para todos sin considerar que lengua hablan y sin
considerar el bien o mal uso que hagan de la lengua inglesa. Prejuicio contra o hacia
personas que tienen poco o nada de pericia en el idioma ingles, porque nunca lo usan,
no es permitido. Por lo tanto, de niguna manera permita usted ser influenciado por
el hecho de que la parte requere un interprete.
{If interpretation into any other language is required, recite a translation of the
English passage above in that language.}
