dc.descriptionFor courts to be equitable, they must be accessible. Court websites are increasingly important repositories of legal information. Despite nearly ubiquitous access to the internet, many information-seeking users are unable to make use of these websites. The reasons for this are myriad, including poverty, disability, low literacy, and language barriers. This report examines the degree to which the current FJD website meets the accessibility needs of three distinct but often overlapping groups of self-represented litigants (SRLs) – those with disabilities, those at low literacy levels, and those whose native language is not English. For each group, suggestions for the FJD to improve access to court information—and, in turn, access to justice—are provided. The following is a summary of our major findings and recommendations.
