How does mediation work in Orange County?
Orange County cases are heard by the Superior Court of California, County of Orange [1]. The court posts its own Civil Mediator List and Civil Arbitrator List, and it is accepting applications for its Judicial Arbitration and Civil Mediation Panels [2][3]. Its Probate Mediation Panel has strict entry rules: ten years of California Bar membership, at least 30 hours of mediator training, eight recent mediations, and an Orange County mediation office [3]. The people listed below come mainly from the court's judicial arbitrator, civil mediator and probate mediator lists, plus the federal Central District panel [2][4].
