Q: In a RMC hearing, can the judge make a final ruling then?or will ur be set for trial
A:
The Court will only enter orders if agreed upon. Otherwise, the Court will try to see what is necessary to move the matter along, and may ask you about mediation and discovery. If the matter is ready for Trial, the Court may schedule deadlines and Trial.
Once the Court swears you in, if you then DO reach agreements, please do so KNOWING that you will be bound to those. Once an agreement is stated on the record, it is deemed binding under per rules ("Rule 69"). You generally cannot thereafter withdraw your consent.
Make sure you have completed your Resolution Management Position Statement and provided such to the opposing party/attorney prior to your hearing.

Most of us offer free, 1/2-hour consultations, in which your matter can be discussed in detail. That would be a great opportunity to discuss the specifics of your matter and develop a plan. I would encourage you to quickly schedule this free consultation.
