How does mediation work in Kings County?

Brooklyn's courts include specialized parts that steer defendants toward treatment instead of incarceration, among them Brooklyn Treatment Court, a Felony Veterans Part and Brooklyn Mental Health Court, which the District Attorney calls the first mental health court in New York City; the DA's Alternative Programs Bureau screens cases for these parts [1]. Article VI of the State Constitution places Kings County in the Second Judicial District [2]. The Eastern District of New York holds federal court in Brooklyn and runs a mediation program under Local Rule 83.8 [3][4]. Residents can also use MEND NYC, free OATH mediation for resident-business and commercial tenant-landlord disputes [5]. Nearly all mediators listed below are Eastern District panel members [4].
