Ind. ADR Rule 2.3

Mediators

Effective January 1, 2025

Any person who wishes to serve as a registered mediator pursuant to these rules must

register with the Indiana Supreme Court Commission for Continuing Legal Education (here-

inafter “Commission”) on forms supplied by the Commission. The registrants must meet qual-

ifications as required in counties or court districts (as set out in Indiana Administrative Rule 3

(A)) in which they desire to mediate and identify the types of litigation which they desire to

mediate. All professional licenses must be disclosed and identified in the form which the Commission requires.

The registration form must be accompanied by a fee of $50 for each registered area (Civil or

Domestic). An annual fee of $50 is due the second December 31st following initial registration. Registered mediators will be billed at the time their annual statements are sent. No

fee is required for a full-time, sitting judge.

The Commission must maintain a list of registered mediators including the following information: (1) whether the person is qualified under A.D.R. Rule 2.5 to mediate domestic relations

or civil cases; (2) the counties or court districts in which the person desires to mediate; (3) the

type of litigation the person desires to mediate; and (4) whether the person is a full-time

judge.

The Commission may remove a registered mediator from its registry for failure to meet or to

maintain the requirements of A.D.R. Rule 2.5 for non-payment of fees. A registered mediator

must maintain a current business and residential address and telephone number with the

Commission. Failure to maintain current information required by these rules may result in

removal from the registry.

Registered mediators must pay a $50 annual fee per calendar year per registration area.

On or before October 31 of each year, each registered mediator will be sent an annual statement showing the mediator's educational activities that have been approved for mediator

credit by the Commission.
