Rule 183

Interpreters

Notes and Comments

Comment to 1990 change: To adopt procedures for the appointment and compensation of interpreters. Source: Fed. R. Civ. P. 43(f). The provision regarding summoning interpreters and their conduct is deleted because it is covered by Rule 604, Texas Rules of Civil Evidence.
