Maine State Court Services for the Deaf/deaf, Hard of Hearing and Late Deafened
The Maine Judicial Branch is committed to providing equal access to Maine state court facilities and court services, ensuring equal employment opportunity, and maintaining an environment in which all people-with diverse needs and functional abilities are treated with dignity, respect, and courtesy.
(Please know that the Maine state courts do not include the county probate courts. For interpreters and accommodations in probate court, please contact your county probate court administration.)
To schedule interpreter services for a Maine state court event, please email interpreters@courts.maine.gov or call 207-822-0703 (V)/Maine Relay 711.
To schedule CART (real-time transcription) services or request other disability accommodations for a Maine state court event, please email accessibility@courts.maine.gov or call 207-822-0718 (V)/Maine Relay 711.
The Americans with Disabilities Act does not require the Maine Judicial Branch to take an action that would fundamentally alter the nature of Maine state court services, impose an undue financial or administrative burden on the Judicial Branch, or alter the legal requirements in a case, and the Judicial Branch does not provide attorney services or legal advice as a disability accommodation.
Court clerks cannot provide legal advice. Clerks can and do provide information about the status of a case to parties to that case over the phone. Please consider contacting the court clerk's office by telephone, through Maine Relay, as needed, for more information about your case.
