Judge Jennifer Robin's standing order requiring mediation in the 410th District Court: prior to an evidentiary oral hearing (with stated exceptions), all parties must attend mediation, and must participate in a SEPARATE mediation for final trial no more than 90 days before final trial (mediation more than 90 days out is too remote to comply); each party must contact the opposing side to schedule and complete mediation before the court date, and a party unable to obtain cooperation must file a motion to compel mediation at least 45 days before trial set on a submission docket. Mediation is NOT required before hearings on motions to compel discovery, summary judgment, default judgments, voluntary dismissal/nonsuit, service of citation, new trial, or TROs (post-TRO injunctive matters at the court's discretion). All parties and attorneys must attend all scheduled sessions for constructive settlement negotiation; TRE 408 and CPRC 154.054/154.073 confidentiality govern; each attorney may be present with the client throughout; and a party wanting time beyond the final-trial date to enter agreed MSA orders may request it in the Joint Status Report for the submission pretrial (failure to appear via that report, even with an MSA, could result in dismissal).
