Title 255--LOCAL
COURT RULES

CRAWFORD COUNTY

Adoption of Civil Rules of Court; No. AD1992-5

[27 Pa.B. 1011]

Order

   And Now, February 10, 1997, it is ordered and directed that the following rules contained in the Crawford County Civil Rules of Court are amended to read as follows:

   1.  Rule L1915.3D Deposit

   Before a custody mediator is appointed the moving party shall pay the Prothonotary the sum of $200 as a deposit for payment of the custody mediator fees and costs, or file a petition to proceed informa pauperis in accordance with Pa.R.C.P. No. 240. The custody mediator or the court will allocate the custody mediator fees and costs among the parties.

   2.  Rule L1930(11)

   Child custody mediators may schedule mediator conferences upon receiving reliable information that the moving party has scheduled himself/herself to take the mandatory Seminar for Separating Parents, however, the date for the conference will be set sometime after the course is expected to be completed. Mediators shall inquire of the moving parties, at the mediator conference, as to whether or not they have both completed the course. If the mediator learns that any party has failed to take the course, then the mediator may, in the mediator's discretion, suspend any further action until the parties have completed the course, or, alternatively, proceed with the mediator conference and propose to the court an order containing sanctions and/or a provision requiring that both parents complete the Seminar for Separating Parents by a date certain.

   This rule shall become effective thirty (30) days after publication in The Pennsylvania Bulletin, and shall apply to all civil proceedings pending at that time.

   It is further ordered and directed that, in accordance with Pa.R.C.P. 239, seven (7) certified copies of this rule shall be filed with the Administrative Office of Pennsylvania Courts; two (2) certified copies shall be forwarded to the Legislative Reference Bureau for publication in The Pennsylvania Bulletin; one (1) certified copy shall be filed with the Civil Procedural Rules Committee; and one (1) certified copy shall be filed with the Domestic Relations Rules Committee.
