Legal Question


can you help clarify how civil code 1383.820 (b) intended to be interpreted? Is the emphasis on the use of "local" dispute resolution programs or "low cost mediation programs"?

For example if there is no "low-cost program" that is "local" it is reasonable to argue that a program that is non-local but much lower cost ( 4 times lower and 30 miles away) be utilized instead?
