1. Instruction: In Three (3) paragraphs discuss/explain the concept of Alternative
Dispute Resolution (ADR) why it is considered by law as an efficient tools and alternative procedures for the easiest resolution of cases. (20 points) - Because of its private nature, ADR affords parties the opportunity to exercise greater control over the way their dispute is resolved than would be the case in court litigation. In contrast to court litigation, the parties themselves may select the most appropriate decision-makers for their dispute. In addition to serving as a potential means of avoiding the expense, delay, and uncertainty associated with traditional litigation, ADR also is intended as a vehicle for improving communication between the parties. ADR provides a forum for creative solutions to disputes that better meet the needs of the parties. There are many advantages, and some disadvantages, to using Alternative Dispute Resolution. Advantages include the fact that it usually takes far less time to reach a final resolution than if the matter where to go to trial. Usually (but not always), it costs significantly less money, as well. 2. What are the Exception to the application of the ADR Act?

(c) A mediator may not be compelled to provide evidence of a mediation communication or testify in such proceeding.
