If you do not docHub an agreement at your court-ordered mediation, the mediator must report to the court the fact that no agreement was docHubed. The confidentiality rules still apply. Even if you do not docHub an agreement during the mediation, you may continue to try to settle your case after mediation.
Case law has clearly confirmed that saying no to an invitation to mediate without reasonable justification during the course of litigation will result in costs sanctions. If you win the case, you may end up getting a lower recovery from the losing party (possibly nil), turning the loser pays rule on its head.
All clothing should be conservative. Many courts have specific dress codes that require conservative attire to maintain decorum and respect for the judicial process. No low necklines, shorts, stiletto heels, tight jeans (actually, avoid jeans altogether), or sleeveless shirts.
Court hearings are open to the public. Everyone who is sitting in the courtroom will hear everything you say to the judge. Mediation is confidential and private, so the other party cant use what you say in mediation against you in court later.
In California, if you have minor children, you are required to attend a mediation with Family Court Services to attempt to resolve parental and custody issues. If you dont have minor children, you are not obligated to participate in mediation voluntarily.

If you want to refuse mediation, consult with a legal professional who can provide guidance based on the specifics of your situation. They can help you understand the potential benefits and drawbacks of mediation compared to other dispute resolution options and assist you in making an informed decision.
Refusal depends on the type of mediation. In mandatory mediation, both parties must attend the session. The court may find one party in contempt for refusing to attend. In voluntary mediation, either party can choose not to attend. There are no consequences for refusing to attend voluntary mediation.
It may not work if: Someones safety is at risk, for example where there has been domestic abuse or child abuse. Your dispute is about financial issues and you or your partner is bankrupt. You dont know where your ex is and cannot contact them. Your mediator thinks mediation will not be suitable for you.
