Stat. tit. 12, § 12-1838","heading":"Program certification – Intent of provision","body":"Any entity, including the Administrative Office of the Courts,\n\n“certifying” mediators for its program shall make clear in all\n\ncommunications regarding the “certification” that the mediator is\n\n“certified” for that program only. Any mediator certified under the\n\nDispute Resolution Act or qualified under the District Court\n\nMediation Act shall be considered “certified” for purposes of any\n\nfederal programs that require the use of “certified mediators” or\n\n“certified programs”. The intent of this provision is to avoid the\n\nmisconception that there is one certifying body for mediators in\n\nOklahoma and to permit agencies to utilize available state and\n\nfederal funds for operation of mediation programs and, where\n\nappropriate, for the compensation of mediators.","path":["OK Code","Title 12"],"source_url":"https://www.oklegislature.gov/OK_Statutes/CompleteTitles/os12.pdf","current_through":"2026-08-14","vintage":"open-us-law v2026.08, retrieved 2026-09-14","retrieved_at":"2026-09-14T18:32:36Z","sha256":"746c674b407ef8d693179cb17f97520e53a9ed3765cb94eb27d6d0288be76243","source_id":"us-ok","stale":false,"prev":"us-ok/okla.-stat.-tit.-12-12-1837","next":"us-ok/okla.-stat.-tit.-12-12-1839"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
