How does mediation work in Lincoln County?
Lincoln County's Chancery Court belongs to the 17th Judicial District, a four-county district that also covers Bedford, Marshall and Moore [1]. Locally, the Clerk & Master keeps the Chancery and Probate records, and its civil caseload includes divorces, adoptions, debts and contracts, estates and real estate disputes [2]. The Circuit Court Clerk handles the General Sessions and Juvenile courts as well [2]. A Rule 31 mediation can begin because the parties consent or because a judge enters an Order of Reference; when the parties agree to mediate without such an order, they choose the mediator themselves [3]. Mediators on this page are taken from the AOC's Rule 31 listing as of October 2026 [4].

Court-connected mediation in Tennessee: When a Tennessee court orders Rule 31 mediation and the parties don't pick a listed Rule 31 mediator together, the judge names three from the AOC's statewide list and each side strikes one name.
Private mediation in Tennessee: Rule 31 says its standards cover only mediations and mediators under that rule, not private mediation outside it. The ADR Commission may waive training for a mediator approved and in good standing in another state.
