How does mediation work in Fayette County?
Fayette County's courthouse at 221 S. 7th Street in Vandalia is part of the Fourth Judicial Circuit [1][2]. When Fayette parents disagree about decision-making, parenting time, removal or relocation, the Fourth Circuit uses a court-approved list of child-related mediators under Supreme Court Rule 905 and circuit Rule 11 [3]. The circuit's Programs & Services page also posts a Mediation Order for child-related issues and a Mediation Evaluation for Parties [4]. Most mediators below are on that child-related list, and one is also on the circuit's civil list [3][5].
