作为应对COVID-19疫情的一部分，全球多个司法管辖区引入远程聆讯，作为继续提供诉诸法院的替代方式。这篇以实践为基础的文章讨论了作者为一个司法审查案件准备的报告，该案件围绕着一个说法，即在移民环境中，完全在线听证会中进行的口译质量不如面对面听证会中的口译。在没有预先存在的研究比较物理和完全在线环境对口译的影响的情况下，作者的专家证人报告探讨了在线和物理环境中控制会话和话轮转换管理，权力关系和叙事以及话语实践的语言学原则，以说明每种环境的沟通优势和劣势。本文借鉴了为专家证人报告而进行的调查，并追求以下目标：（1）反思案件所需的语言专业知识的作用;（2）详细说明报告中所得出的结论和认可的建议;（3）讨论在移民环境中有效沟通的重要性;（4）挑战关于如何引出、分享和感知叙述的常见误解;（5）探索保障战略，加强远程听证会中的话语实践，以改善非母语人士诉诸司法的机会。
As part of the response to the COVID-19 pandemic, many jurisdictions across the world introduced remote hearings as an alternative way of continuing to offer access to courts. This practice-based article discusses the report prepared by the author for a judicial review case which revolved around the claim that in immigration settings the quality of interpreting conducted in fully online hearings is inferior to interpreting in face-to-face hearings. In the absence of pre-existing research comparing the impact of the physical and fully online settings on interpreting, the author’s expert witness report explored linguistic principles governing conversation and turn-taking management, power relations and narrativisation and discursive practices in online and physical settings to illustrate communicative advantages and disadvantages of each environment. The article draws on the investigations conducted for the expert witness report and pursues the following aims: (1) reflect on the role of linguistic expertise required for the case; (2) detail the conclusions drawn and recommendations endorsed in the report; (3) discuss the importance of effective communication in immigration settings; (4) challenge common misconceptions in relation to how narratives are elicited, shared and perceived; (5) explore safeguarding strategies for enhancing discursive practices in fully remote hearings in order to improve non-native speakers’ access to justice.
