**This is the first episode in a two-part series that discusses the Deaf community’s complicated relationship with the Justice System. The Deaf community is at a unique intersection of linguistic minority and disability access.
Amber Farrelly is a criminal defense lawyer who specializes in representing Deaf clients in various counties in Texas. Recently she found herself nearly in contempt of court due to refusing to pay for interpreter fees even though it wasn’t her responsibility to pay such fees nor the responsibility of her client.
We talked about the conflict of access to communication and the right to a fair trial for Deaf clients in the justice system. For the June 1, 2016 episode of Intersections Radio, Amber and I talked about these issues and more.
