What can a mediator tell a judge if the case is in court?
A mediator cannot tell a judge much at all. The UMA limits a mediator to telling a judge the following: whether or not the mediation occurred, who attended, and whether or not the case was settled. Beyond those points, a mediator cannot report, analyze, evaluate, or make findings or recommendations to a court or judge.
