This section of the code lists civil action cases eligible for mediation. It sets a jurisdictional limit of $50,000 on cases that may be referred to mediation, and allows cases eligible for arbitration in Los Angeles County, and all other counties that elect to apply to the statute, to be referred to mediation as an alternative resolution process. It also addresses non-agreement procedures, mediator selection and compensation, and other topics.
