If you are Deaf, DeafBlind, or Hard of Hearing and require communication access—such as a sign language interpreter, CART services, or an assistive listening device—for a court hearing or probation matter, notify the court or probation office directly. Courts are legally responsible for providing communication access that is culturally and linguistically appropriate.

If the court or probation office does not provide access, or if you face delays or barriers, contact the Nebraska Commission for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (NCDHH) immediately. NCDHH can help you address the issue and ensure the responsible agency fulfills its obligation.
