[WSBAPT] Disclosing Results of Failed Mediation

[Paul Neumiller]

Listservers:  Long story short:  TEDRA action.  One party invoked mediation.  Mediation failed.  Another party attempts to invoke arbitration.  In resisting the arbitration, a party to the failed mediation states in a pleading to the court that  “Mr. X refused to negotiate in good faith at mediation and is now attempting to wear Parties Z down financially by demanding arbitration.”

Whoa Nellie.   Not only is the statement untrue BUT I thought it was a violation to express anything more than the “mediation failed” but to not assert blame or a cause for the failure.  Isn’t there some rule out there to strike this statement?
