Stipulation to Alternative Dispute Resolution Form

San Francisco Superior Court · Overview

Verified current as of July 19, 2026

This form is used when both people involved in a court case agree to try solving their dispute outside of court through methods like mediation or arbitration instead of having a judge decide the case. Either party in a civil lawsuit (such as someone suing over a contract dispute, property damage, or business disagreement) would need this form if they want to skip the traditional trial process.
