Steven Saltiel, Circuit Mediator

For over twenty years, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has operated a court mediation and settlement program. The court offers this service, at no cost, because it helps resolve disputes quickly and efficiently and can often provide a more satisfactory result than can be achieved through continued litigation. No case is too big or too small for mediation in the court's program. Attendees at this seminar can hear from and ask questions of several Circuit Mediators about how this program works and how it can help
settle cases that did not settle in the trial court.
Topics
• What mediation services does the Ninth Circuit offer?
• What type of cases benefit from mediation on appeal?
• What are the ethical issues raised by mediation on appeal?
• How can you best prepare for mediation on appeal?
Co-Chairs: Ben Feuer, California Appellate Law Group and Kelly Woodruff, California Appellate Law Group
