languages are professionally
qualified which are paid at $495

3 Overtime payments are payable
only for time worked in excess
of 8 hours in one day. A
contract interpreter cannot
charge different court units or
a federal defender or CJA panel
attorney for any half-day or
full days for which he or she is
already receiving payment from
another court unit or a federal
defender or CJA panel attorney.
We observe a
ten-minute courtesy period
before overtime rates apply for
assignments after 5:30 P.M.
