814.10. A party that has a valid reason not to attend the information session on the mediation process may state that fact to the mediator of his choice; the reason may relate, in particular, to the inequality of the power relationship, to the disability or the physical or psychological condition of the party or to the great distance between the party’s residence and that of the other party.

In such a case, the mediator draws up a report containing an express statement of the party concerned that the party cannot attend the information session for a valid reason, which need not be disclosed; the mediator then files his report with the Family Mediation Service and sends a copy to the party having made the statement and, if the application has been filed at the office of the court, to the other party.
