The mediation process may vary depending on the mediator.

Generally, mediations commence with a general session with all parties, counsel and the mediator. At the general session, there will be a discussion of the case, the issues on appeal and other matters important to settlement. Then the mediator will meet separately with each party and their counsel in separate "caucuses." In these separate sessions, the mediator will seek to foster negotiations between the parties and develop agreement.

Definition:
Courts which administer a legal remedy according to the system of equity, as distinguished from courts of common law.

Equitable powers are flexible and try to do justice. Courts of law are rigid and must act strictly according to the law.
