Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 50, December 13, 2024
Section 1210 - Resumes of Neutrals
(a) Content of File. The OAH shall maintain a file containing the names and résumés of mediators and arbitrators. Information about Neutrals shall be kept on file for a minimum of one year unless the Neutral requests in writing to be removed. Neutrals may update their résumés not more than twice in a 12-month period but must update them annually to remain on file. The file shall contain a disclaimer stating "Inclusion of a résumé in this file does not constitute an endorsement of a Neutral, nor should negative implications be drawn from the fact that a Neutral is not included in this file. Parties are not obligated to choose a Neutral from this file."
(b) Content of Résumés. Résumés shall be submitted on a ADR-Résumé2, revision date 8/97, available from the OAH and from the OAH Web Page (http://www.dgs.ca.gov/oah). Résumés shall include, as a minimum, qualifications, degrees, experience, areas of specialty, and fees charged. Each résumé shall also contain a signed and dated statement of compliance with these regulations as specified in Section 1208. Résumés shall not be advertisements but factual information pages. The fee schedule specified in the résumé shall be the fees charged for the duration of any mediation or arbitration agreed to while the résumé is on file.
(c) Removal of Résumés for Cause. If a neutral does not comply with Regulation 1208, the OAH ADR administrator may remove the neutral's résumé from the file, provided that the administrator gives the neutral written notice of the intended action and affords the neutral a 10-day opportunity to respond in writing.
(d) Fees. The OAH may establish filing fees or other necessary fees to cover administrative costs of maintaining the file. The amount of such fee, if any, will be available from the OAH with the résumé forms.
