Under this rule, all civil cases are subject to alternative dispute resolution processes. A conference shall be held after service of a complaint in which the selection and timing of the ADR process will be discussed. The parties may select a neutral, though the court may appoint one if an agreement cannot be reached. The rule provides requirements regarding scheduling of processes, attendance, sanctions, giving of notice, confidentiality, the powers of neutrals, neutral qualifications and training, payment of fees, and the maintenance by the court of a roster of certified neutrals.
