How does mediation work in Johnston County?

Johnston County's Child Support Enforcement Office locates absent parents and establishes, collects and enforces support obligations, and it asks clients to cooperate, including by appearing in court [1]. The county is its own Superior Court District 13 in the Third Division, with two resident judges [2]. In district court it is grouped with Harnett and Lee in District 12, where five elected judgeships are reserved for Johnston residents and Benson, Clayton and Selma are additional seats [3]. Superior court civil actions may be ordered to mediated settlement conferences by the senior resident judge [4]. Federal cases are in the Eastern District [5]. Mediators below come from the Eastern District's mediator list [6] and its bankruptcy court's certified mediators [7].
