Court of Appeal order denying Yealink's request for simultaneous interpretation at the oral hearing in provisional measures proceedings. The Court held that a party must justify the need for court-ordered simultaneous interpretation; the fact that the defendant is based in a non-English speaking country or that company officials will have difficulties following proceedings does not generally justify such an order. The same applies to interpretation at the parties' own cost. A party may instead engage a private interpreter at its own expense with two weeks' notice to the Registry (R. 109.4 RoP).
