MARCELINO HERRERA * NO. 2006-CA-1627 VERSUS * COURT OF APPEAL THE CAJUN COMPANY * FOURTH CIRCUIT * STATE OF LOUISIANA * * ******* BELSOME, J. CONCURS WITH REASONS. I respectfully concur in the result but write separately to recognize a lower court’s duty to provide a translator for parties whose primary language is not English. In this instance, the trial judge determined that the presence of a translator was necessary. Thus, the translator assisted the court by eliminating the potential for a misrepresentation or misunderstanding that may have resulted from the language barrier.
