Who has the responsibility for ADA compliance when courts are located in buildings that are owned or leased by another government agency?
The ADA places the legal obligation on each agency respectively. When agencies share the same building, they can work to ensure that facility modifications are made as needed to provide program accessibility. Each agency is responsible for ensuring effective communication and for providing auxiliary aids and services as needed. It is often possible to share resources or equipment, such as assistive listening systems or Braille printers.
