The MSBA's ADR Section Presents

"Kentucky Felony Mediation Program: A Model for Mediation of Criminal Cases in Minnesota?"

State courts in Kentucky utilize pre-trial mediation for the resolution of felony cases with an estimated 80% success rate. Could mediation of criminal matters in Minnesota ease the already over-loaded criminal docket and bring closure to defendants, prosecutors, and victims in some cases?
