United States District Court, Eastern District of California
Settlement Week - June 10-14, 2013
Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) has become increasingly common in recent years as a means of resolving disputes effectively and efficiently, and a viable alternative to trial. The Eastern District of California is pleased to announce that during the week of June 10-14, 2013, Eastern District judges, volunteer attorney mediators and local law professors will be conducting mediation sessions and settlement conferences for federal cases pending in the Eastern District of California at no charge to the parties. Cases from both the Fresno and Sacramento divisions will be included in the ADR event, entitled Settlement Week. Appropriate Settlement Week cases are currently being identified and sessions will be held simultaneously in Sacramento and Fresno.
If you are interested in having one of your federal cases included in Settlement Week, or if you are interested in volunteering as a mediator, please contact Sujean Park at the U.S. District Court at (916) 930-4278 or via email at spark@caed.uscourts.gov.
