Superior Court Supports Community Mediation




December 6 2009

Sonora, CA, The Superior Court of California, County of Tuolumne, is closer to offering court community mediation.

Attorney-Mediator Edward Johnson of Mariposa outlined recently the formation of mediation as an alternative dispute resolution vs litigation.

The newly formed community mediation will offer training and a panel of mediators will be assembled for small claims and limited civil cases.

Mediation will be available to the general public and members of the bar.

Amador County Superior Court in Jackson, CA has had an active mediation program for over a year and has been highly successful in settlements vs ongoing litigation says court panel member Mediator Jim W Hildreth.
