Threats and Intimidations

Not all mediation are possible. When a direct current immediate threat involving one or more of the individual involved in the mediation, this precludes mediation. Direct threat in the distant past against one or more mediation parties can be troubling to deal with. However, if there is more current allegation of illegal actions not involving threats to physical safety of the parties, the mediator must carefully evaluate the reported events. These illegal action could constitute intimidation and the mediation should cease. Both parties need to sign the mediation agreement.
