Pacifica peace talks coming....Hop on board the Farrell Peace Train.
On Thursday, November 1st, plaintiffs and defendants in the four law suits brought against the Pacifica Board of Directors and Pacifica Foundation will enter into mediated settlement discussions. We will be using the services of Retired California Supreme Court Associate Justice Edward A. Panelli through a private mediation firm, JAMS (Judicial Arbitration & Mediation Services). Justice Panelli has been agreed to by all parties and will facilitate discussions to see if the parties can reach an agreement ... he will not dictate a solution.
All of the parties enter the discussion with no pre-conditions, and this is not a court ordered or supervised mediation. We are hopeful that a successful conclusion can be reached and we can all get back to the task of serving the mission of Pacifica during this crucial time. At the same time, since there are no guarantees that these negotiations will result in a mutually acceptable resolution, we are moving full steam ahead preparing for trial as scheduled in January.
As soon as possible we will issue a report on the outcome of the discussions. In the meantime, we again thank you for all of the support you have given the legal work.Return to Houston Radio Report homepage
