Opportunity to Comment on Proposed Changes to Commercial Division Rules

The Office of Court Administration has asked for public comment on a proposed change to the Commercial Division rules relating to the selection of mediators. The new rule would add the following sentence to Commercial Division Rule 3: "Counsel are encouraged to work together to select a mediator that is mutually acceptable, and may wish to consult any list of approved neutrals in the county where the case is pending."
