How to request interpreters and ADA accommodations for a New Mexico court date

A presenter for New Mexico Courts said, "If you or 1 of your witnesses does not speak English, please contact your court and ask for a free interpreter." The presenter urged people who need language access to contact the specific courthouse to arrange services so the hearing can proceed with interpretation.

The presenter also instructed attendees who need disability assistance to contact the court before the court date — "a week ahead if possible" — to request ADA accommodations, emphasizing early requests to ensure the court can arrange required supports.
