Have you been to a courtroom before? Maybe you are unsure of the internal protocol of a court setting?

This is a short summary of some of the things that you might find useful:

    1. It’s important to dress appropriately. Wearing smart clothes which are suitable for business is recommended
    2. If you are a Sign Language user – it is the responsibility of the court to provide a Sign Language interpreter. You have a right to request this.
    3. If you have been a victim of a crime, there is victim support available. It is a free and confidential service
