2005 Connecticut Code - Sec. 52-235d. Mediation. Disclosure.
Sec. 52-235d. Mediation. Disclosure. (a) As used in this section, "mediation"
means a process, or any part of a process, which is not court-ordered, in which a person
not affiliated with either party to a lawsuit facilitates communication between such
parties and, without deciding the legal issues in dispute or imposing a resolution to the
legal issues, which assists the parties in understanding and resolving the legal dispute
of the parties.
(c) Any disclosure made in violation of any provision of this section shall not be admissible in any proceeding.
(d) Nothing in this section shall prevent (1) the discovery or admissibility of any evidence that is otherwise discoverable merely because such evidence was presented during the course of the mediation, or (2) the disclosure of information for research or educational purposes done in cooperation with dispute resolution programs provided the parties and specific issues in controversy are not identifiable.
(P.A. 98-59, S. 1.)
Subsec. (b):
Denial of motion for judgment and denial of motion for order pursuant to subsec. were not appealable final judgments. Plaintiffs did not have a colorable constitutional or statutory right, independent of the exercise of discretion of trial court, which would be irretrievably lost and irreparably harmed without immediate appellate review. 82 CA 148.
