VARGAS PAVEZ, Macarena. Mandatory mediation: Some reasons to justify its incorporation. Rev. derecho (Valdivia) [online]. 2008, vol.21, n.2, pp. 183-202. ISSN 0718-0950.  doi: 10.4067/S0718-09502008000200008.

The collapse in which the Family Court fell into shortly after its beginning, forced the Government to send a bill that contains a set of measures that have the tendency to decongest this new judgeship. In the set of measures voluntarity of mediation is substituted by mandatory derivation, in a previous form of a lawsuit appeal for certain matters. This paper’s objective is to appeal to determining public policy objectives that underlie this measure, its adaptation to the principles that encourage mediation and its effects in Family Court experience.
