A quick definition of Alternative dispute resolution - State statutes:

Alternative dispute resolution - State statutes: Alternative dispute resolution (ADR) refers to methods of resolving legal disputes outside of the traditional court system. Each state in the United States has its own set of laws and regulations regarding ADR. These laws are typically found in the state's statutes, which are collections of written laws passed by the state's legislature. ADR methods can include mediation, arbitration, and negotiation, and are often used to resolve disputes in a more efficient and cost-effective manner than going to court.

A more thorough explanation:

Alternative dispute resolution (ADR) refers to methods of resolving legal disputes outside of the traditional court system. State statutes provide guidelines and regulations for ADR processes such as mediation, arbitration, and negotiation. Each state has its own set of statutes that govern ADR.

For example, in California, ADR is governed by Title 2, Division 3, Part 1, Chapter 4.5, Article 5. This article outlines the requirements for court-ordered mediation and the qualifications for mediators. In Texas, ADR is governed by Government Code, Title 10, Subtitle A, 2008, which provides guidelines for arbitration and mediation in civil cases.

These state statutes illustrate the importance of ADR in the legal system and provide a framework for resolving disputes in a more efficient and cost-effective manner. By using ADR methods, parties can avoid the time and expense of going to court and reach a mutually beneficial resolution.
