ORDER SETTING PRE-MEDIATION TELEPHONE CONFERENCE

The above-captioned action is hereby set for a pre-mediation telephone conference on

The parties shall identify the party

representative(s) who will be attending the mediation, and shall ensure the Court that said
representatives have appropriate settlement authority;
2) Communication of Demand(s): Plaintiff(s) will be instructed to make a demand to
Defendant(s), and Defendant(s) will be instructed to make a counter-offer prior to the
mediation;
3) Physical Separation of Parties: The parties shall inform the Court if physical separation of
the parties is necessary (i.e., whether safety concerns or hostile relationships warrant putting
the parties in rooms on different floors, or even in different buildings); and

4) Questions about the Order for Court-Conducted Mediation: If the parties have
questions about the Court’s Order for Court Conducted Mediation, they should raise those
questions during this telephone conference.
