Rule 1915.3-6 - Conduct Of Parties At Conciliation

The Conciliation Conference is an informal proceeding designed to assist the parties in identifying areas of agreement or disagreement and developing a parenting plan that is in the best interests of the children. The proceeding is neither confrontational nor adversarial.

Participation shall be limited to the parties and/or their counsel. All participants shall act in a cooperative manner and comply with the directives of the Conciliator.

If at any time during the conciliation process a party and/or their counsel engages in conduct inconsistent with the Rules of Professional Conduct or disrupts the conciliation process or interferes with the function of the Conciliator, the Conciliator may recess the proceeding, remove the violator and reconvene if appropriate. If a party is removed, an order may be entered in his or her absence. If an attorney is removed, his or her client can choose to continue in the process if they so desire. Any violator may be referred to a contempt proceeding.
