Common Problems with Courtrooms
Ø Doors are too heavy to open.
Ø No assistive listening systems are provided for people who are hard of hearing.
Ø Fixed seats or benches for courtroom spectators are positioned to leave little room for people who use wheelchairs; wheelchair placement in aisles can violate fire codes.
Ø Jury toilet rooms are not accessible.
Ø Jury boxes and witness stands can only be accessed by climbing a step.
This courtroom is designed so everyone can use it. The jury box has space for a juror who uses a wheelchair.
