The City of Durango Municipal Court has contracted with a court-certified Spanish translator for cases that require translation to ensure that everyone has equal access and aid in court decisions. Gene Lyle, an interpreter for federal immigration court in Denver will be available one day a month to provide in-person Spanish interpretation. Defendants requiring Spanish translation can now request that their court days be scheduled on the days that Lyle will be present. The municipal court will continue to offer a call-in service for days that Lyle is not available, or if a language other than Spanish is required. The first week of July is rapidly approaching, and there are a plethora of activities all week to celebrate the 4th of July. Kick off the celebration Saturday, July 1st at the La Plata County Fairgrounds with the Independent Food Truck celebration, followed by the Oscars pie eating contest before moving to 11th Street Station for a silent disco.
