The District of Columbia Proposed Order To Continue Scheduled Mediation Date is a legal document used in the District of Columbia Courts to extend the mediation date if the parties are unable to reach a settlement. It is typically used when the parties are unable to complete the mediation process by the original scheduled date and need more time to negotiate a settlement. The proposed order can be filed with the court by either party or both and must be approved by the court before it is effective. There are two types of District of Columbia Proposed Order To Continue Scheduled Mediation Date: 1) an Order to Reschedule Mediation and 2) an Order to Extend Mediation. An Order to Reschedule Mediation will reschedule the mediation date to a specific new date and time. An Order to Extend Mediation will extend the existing mediation date for a specified amount of time.
