Americans with Disabilities Act

The 29^th Judicial District complies with Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) that provides that “no qualified individual with a disability shall, by reason of such disability, be excluded from participation in or be denied the benefits of the services, programs, or activities of a public entity, or be subjected to discrimination by any such entity”.  42 U.S.C.A. §12132.  Pursuant to that requirement, if you are an individual with a disability who needs an accommodation in order to participate in any judicial proceeding or any other service, program, or activity of the 29^th Judicial District, you are entitled, at no cost to you, to the provision of certain assistance.  The ADA does not require the 29^th Judicial District to take any action that would fundamentally alter the nature of its programs or services, or impose an undue financial or administrative burden.

If you require an accommodation under the ADA, it is recommended that you make your request as soon as possible or at least five (5) business days before your scheduled participation in any court proceeding, program or activity of the 29^th Judicial District.  All requests for accommodation, regardless of timeliness, will be given due consideration and if necessary, may require an interactive process between the requestor and the 29^th Judicial District to determine the best course of action.
