Model Rules for Mediation

As a way to start a conversation about the impact of technology – online and offline – on the various practices that make up conflict engagement in all its forms, I have worked with a group of SMU graduate students to draft a set of annotations to the Model Rules for Mediation published by the ABA, ACR, and AAA.   At the moment, at least one law review article is being written in response to the annotations, and they will be the subject of discussion at several upcoming conferences, including, I hope, the 2017 ODR Forum in Paris next June.  To see a copy of the annotations, click on the link below.
