Any matter identified in ORS 107.755 or described in ORS 107.765 shall be subject to mediation. The court will not consider any contested custody or parenting time issue in a proceeding that results in a final judgment or order and the court may decline to consider any contested custody or parenting time issue in a proceeding that results in a temporary order under ORS 107.095, unless it is notified by the mediator that the matter has proceeded through mediation in accordance with these rules.
A matter may be excluded from mandatory or ordered mediation upon application by a party and upon a showing of good cause to the court with service upon the opposing party and after being given the opportunity to be heard in objection.
A mediator may consider issues of property division or spousal or child support in connection with the mediation of a dispute concerning child custody or parenting time with the written approval of both parties or counsel.
A mediator qualified to mediate financial issues may mediate issues including, but not limited to, property and debt division, spousal support, and child support. Domestic relations financial mediation may be, but is not required, in connection with the mediation of a dispute concerning child custody, parenting time or visitation; however, if mediation is mandatory under Rule 12.001(1), the custody and parenting issues must be resolved before addressing financial issues. If mediation is not mandatory under rule 12.001(1), the court may, on its own motion or by motion of one party, order domestic relations financial mediation. Domestic relations financial mediation is subject to SLR 12.001(2) and 12.002-12.013.
