Taken from one of Wolf's prior posts (Sept. 24 info on mediation in Eastern District of Texas) (thanks Wolf)
Outcome. Within five days of the mediation conference, the mediator must file a report indicating whether all required parties were present and whether the case settled, was continued with the consent of the parties, or was declared at an impasse by the mediator. If the parties reach settlement, lead counsel must notify the court by filing a settlement agreement signed by the parties and the mediator within ten days of the mediation conference.
If mediation ended on Sept. 27, should the mediator's report be filed by Oct 4? If so, how will we know the results (if at all)? Do we have to wait for lead counsel to notify the court before we will know anything?
