Mediation is, at its core, a voluntary process. However, many judges or statutes will mandate that parties attempt mediation because it is often successful and takes some of the burden off the court system. If you have been ordered to mediate, you are required to show up to the session and put forth a good faith effort. You are NOT required to come to a resolution.
