W. Va. Trial Ct. R. 25.11
Participation
No party may be compelled by these rules, the court, or the mediator to settle a case involuntarily or against the party's judgment. All parties involved in mediation, however, and their respective representatives, counsel, and insurance carriers shall participate fully, openly and knowledgeably in a mutual effort to examine and resolve issues. "Bad faith," as used in insurance litigation as a legal term of art, is not applicable to the mediation process.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
