This Court previously suspended the credentials of several Certified and Registered Courtroom Interpreters for failure to comply with the continuing education requirements for calendar year 2024 and/or with the annual credential renewal requirements for 2025. See 2025 OK 18 (SCAD 2025-14, dated March 10, 2025).
Under the applicable rules, a suspended certificate which has not been reinstated on or before April 15 shall be administratively revoked on that date. 20 O.S., Chapter 23, App. II, Rules 18(f) and 20(g). The Oklahoma Board of Examiners of Certified Courtroom Interpreters has advised that the interpreters listed in attached Exhibit A have not reinstated their credential as required by the rules, and the Board has recommended to this Court the revocation of the credential of each of these interpreters.
This Court hereby approves the Board's recommendation of revocation of each of the Courtroom Interpreters named below, and pursuant to the applicable rules such revocation shall be effective May 12, 2025.
