Without bias, prejudice, or other preconception. The members of a jury should have no opinion or vested interest about a case at the start of the trial and should base their verdict on competent legal evidence presented during the trial.
The mediator will be neutral and have no stake in the outcome. This neutrality will be demonstrated by even-handed and balanced conduct that the mediator practices with all parties in the process. The mediator will clearly disclose any known potential or actual conflict of interest with any party. The parties may then decide any issues related to impartiality by continuing with the current mediator, selecting a new mediator or choosing not to participate in the mediation process.
