Legal Question in Civil Litigation in California
What if somebody who volunteers as an interpreter in small claims court also happens to be a licensed attorney? If this interpreter also gave some legal advice, is this person barred from appearing in small claims as an interpreter? And if this person never gave legal advice or helped the claimant in a legal way, can this person serve as an interpreter?

I've noticed this morning that a great deal of people are posting the number "zero" as the relevant zip code. That information allows attorneys on Lawguru to identify potential conflicts, and advise people when they need to seek the advice of an attorney in another state. At this point, I will not answer any questions where people do not identify their zip codes, and I ask that other attorneys on Lawguru do the same.
