Settlement and mediation · 2026-06

Mediation didn't settle. You can try again, or you can sue. Watch the time yourself.

A certificate that it failed is not the end. Mediation at the court and mediation at the office don't share the next step.

You asked the committee and it didn't settle. You can ask for a certificate that it failed. If both of you still will, you can try again. If one side won't, what's left is a lawsuit or some other procedure. For disputes the law says must go to mediation first, the court may still try again after you sue.

If you asked the court for mediation and it fails, you can ask to have that request treated as a lawsuit. There's a window. Miss it and you recount the time limit yourself. I'm not going to tell you which calendar day those ten days land on. Read the certificate you were given, and the Code of Civil Procedure.

What you can do first

  1. 01Keep the failure certificate. Circle the date on it.
  2. 02Pick another try, or a lawsuit. Don't let both drift.
  3. 03The filing and the evidence stay apart. Don't walk in with only a stack of chats.

Rewritten in my own words. Not a judgment and not a law firm's article. If a number shows up, it belonged to that public discussion, not to you. Check the Judicial Yuan judgment system. These started as public discussions of car crashes. I rewrote them here. Not a law firm's article.

I'm not a lawyer, and I'm not a mediator. I can't decide this for you. The statute that counts is the one still in force. Judgments live on the Judicial Yuan site.
