Carolynn: I didn’t have an example to send
you but copied the local rule for DC on Mediation. Don’t worry about form. I
am looking mainly for substance. Please limit this to no more than 10 hours. Thank you LCvR 84.6 MEDIATION STATEMENTS (a) CONTENT AND TIMING. No later than seven days prior to the
first mediation session, each party shall submit directly to the mediator a
confidential mediation statement. The mediation statement shall not exceed ten pages and shall
outline the underlying facts of the dispute, the key legal issues in the case, possible
areas of agreement and options for settlement, and the settlement history of the dispute, if
any. The mediation statement shall also identify, by name and title or status: (1) the person(s) with decision-making
authority, who in addition to counsel, will attend the mediation as
representative(s) of the party; and (2) persons connected with either
party (including insurer representatives) whose presence might substantially improve
the utility of the mediation or the prospects for settlement. (b) CONFIDENTIAL NATURE OF
STATEMENT. Mediation statements shall not be
filed with the Court or served upon other parties to the
lawsuit. Haytham Faraj, Esq. PUCKETT & FARAJ, PC WASHINGTON DC׀ SAN DIEGO ׀ DEARBORN 888.970.0005 Toll Free 202.280.1039 Fax The information
