How does mediation work in Surry County?

Courtroom security in Surry County falls to the sheriff's bailiffs, who bring inmates to and from court, carry out the presiding judge's orders and formally open and close each day's court.[2] Surry and Stokes counties share Superior Court District 23 in the Fourth Division[3] and District Court District 23, with Mount Airy as an extra seat of district court for Surry.[4] Equitable distribution, alimony and support cases may be ordered to a mediated settlement conference by the chief district court judge.[5] The federal Middle District holds court in Winston-Salem.[6] Mediators below come largely from the Middle District list,[7] with others from the Western[8] and Eastern[9] lists.
