What if I get a mediation call from the court?

Legal analysis: (1) Actively cooperate with the work.

Please bring your ID card to the court as soon as possible to collect the relevant litigation materials according to the notified time. When you receive litigation materials for the first time, you must leave your own address and contact information, and fill in the confirmation letter of service address according to the tips of the court staff, and write down the names and contact information of the case-handling judge, assistant judge and clerk. In the short term, if you really can't get the litigation materials from the court in person due to objective reasons, you can entrust your close relatives, or citizens and lawyers recommended by grassroots organizations as agents, and they will get them from the court with the power of attorney and the identity certificate of the agent issued by you; Or tell the specific mailing address by SMS or WeChat, and then the court will send the litigation materials to you by "judicial special mail".

(2) Actively responding to the lawsuit and giving evidence.

After receiving the litigation materials, you should read them carefully, and then submit a written defense and provide relevant evidence within the specified time limit. When providing evidence, a catalogue of evidence should be made, indicating the name of the evidence and the purpose of proof. In the process of giving evidence in defense, we should seek truth from facts, and we must not forge, conceal or destroy evidence. In addition, mediation can improve work efficiency, reduce litigation costs and safeguard the feelings of both parties. At the same time, the conciliation statement issued by the court has the same enforcement effect as the judgment, which can effectively protect the legitimate rights and interests of the parties. Therefore, it is especially recommended that both parties meet each other halfway, actively cooperate with the court's mediation work, and strive for mediation to close the case.

(3) Maintain rationality and peace

In the process of litigation, the parties should keep a rational and peaceful mind, abide by judicial etiquette, and respect court staff and other participants in litigation. The plaintiff may be upset because of the delay in the progress of the case, and the defendant may be angry because of being sued or having his property seized. In this regard, the Furong District Court suggests that you express your demands rationally and peacefully to the court staff in charge of your case and solve your problems according to law. The purpose of the court's work is to "let the people feel fair and just in every judicial case". Do not stir up trouble, attack the court, insult, slander, threaten or beat judicial staff and other participants in litigation, and do not rob or destroy litigation documents and evidence, otherwise you will be investigated for legal responsibilities such as fines, detention and even criminal sanctions.
