Supreme Court of Oklahoma
State Board of Examiners of Certified Courtroom Interpreters v. Perez
June 30, 20262026 OK 55
Summary
The Court conducted de novo review of the disciplinary record and found that Perez violated the rule prohibiting misrepresentation in obtaining certification by falsely swearing that she was unable to work or complete continuing education throughout the year. The Court found insufficient evidence that her physician's note or letter independently constituted misrepresentation or fraud. It rejected revocation as excessive and imposed a one-year suspension effective from the date of her administrative suspension.
