The mediator shall schedule the mediation session(s) with the parties.
(b) Mediator to be impartial. The mediator shall be impartial. Before accepting a mediation, the mediator shall make a reasonable inquiry to determine whether there are any known facts or potential conflicts of interest that a reasonable person would consider likely to affect the impartiality of the mediator, including a financial or personal interest in the outcome of the mediation and an existing or past relationship with a mediation party, and disclose such fact and potential conflicts to the parties to the Committee. Upon notification of a conflict, the Committee shall appoint a replacement mediator from the list of approved mediators.
