Judge Roberts is hosting a small meeting with interested parties to discuss a program she is piloting by which she might establish an early mediation program for section 1983 prisoner rights cases, principally those involving disputes over medical care. There is a program in Nevada with a 30% resolution rate and Judge Roberts is reaching out to various organizations to enlist support in creating a group of lawyers to act as mediators.
The meeting will take place in the 7th Floor Judges Conference Room at 3:00 pm on Monday 1/8/18.
Please email Executive Director Mindy Herrmann at fbamich@fbamich.org if you would like to attend.
