The Alternative Dispute Resolution Commission (ADRC) has created an ADR Resolution Plan to assist courts facing a backlog of civil cases caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The plan, which has been approved by the Tennessee Supreme Court, creates a process that makes mediation more available to civil litigants to help provide faster, less expensive and potentially more satisfying alternatives to continuing litigation. The four-hour training will discuss the ADR plan, train attendees on virtual mediation technology, discuss working as a mediator when both parties are self-represented and more. The program will take place on Jan. 22 at 9 a.m. CST. Register for the program here.
