Check Interpreter - Frequently Used in High Profile
Litigation Cases
A check interpreter is an interpreter that listens and makes
sure that the interpretation performed by the main interpreter
is complete and accurate. It is frequently used in high
profile litigation cases, especially those involve patent
litigation cases, ITC cases, or complex intellectual property
cases. A check interpreter is normally requested by the
party being deposed, or those on the defense side.
A check interpreter may also function like an ear when "side
conversations" in another language occur and thus making sure
that the opposing side is aware that someone was observing and
monitoring any other necessary and unnecessary conversations.
The Work of A Check Interpreter
The check interpreter listens intently during depositions or
hearings, making sure every interpretation rendered by the main
interpreter is complete and accurate. Some might feel that
the work of a check interpreter is much easier than the main
interpreter. This may not be the case. Same amount
of attention and energy is put into the entire hours and focus
is the key for a good check interpreter.
Generally speaking, the check interpreter is not allowed to
speak with the main interpreter, both during depositions or
hearings and after depositions or hearings. This is to
prevent unnecessary conflict of interest or potential conflict
of interest. A check interpreter's role is to listen,
observe, and check, making sure everything is in compliance with
the ethics and rules of interpretations during depositions.
