How does mediation work in Sebastian County?

Sebastian County forms the Twelfth Judicial Circuit, and the state judicial directory lists seven circuit judges there, all with Fort Smith addresses [1]. The circuit's administrative plan refers some matters to state district judges in the Fort Smith and Greenwood districts [2]. Mediators for Arkansas circuit court cases must be certified by the Alternative Dispute Resolution Commission, which gives its roster to every circuit judge [3]. The statewide Access and Visitation Mediation Program offers custody, visitation and child support mediation at income-based reduced rates [4]; its 2025 roster lists mediators in Fort Smith and Barling [5]. Mediators below come from the Commission's certified directory [6].
