Complete and honest sharing of information is essential for mediation to be successful. Parties are required to fully disclose all financial information and to update all information as necessary.
A notarized and signed Financial Affidavit as well as other documentation to verify financial information will be expected from each party. Failure to bring such documentation or disclose appropriate information may be considered evidence of “bad faith” and may constitute grounds for nullifying any agreement.
When the mediation session is scheduled, the Center will send additional information on what to bring and issues to prepare to discuss.
Agency-specific information:
A criminal case in the DeKalb Superior Court (DeKalb Judicial Circuit) is not assigned to a specific Judge until the District Attorney makes a decision to bring charges in the case.
Charges in a criminal case in Superior Court proceed by way of an indictment returned by the Grand Jury or by way of an accusation drawn by the District Attorney. When the indictment or accusation is filed with the Clerk of Superior Court, the case is then assigned to one of ten Superior Court Judges.
Prior to a case being filed, the case is “unindicted” and identified with a “D” number. It is not assigned to a specific Superior Court Judge.
All questions regarding “D” number cases should therefore be directed to the District Attorney’s office.
