09:50:39 AM

Commissioner Levy
observed that there does not seem to be a great need for this act as current
Colorado law addresses mediation and perhaps the commission should wait
until it hears there is a need for this act from family law practitioners
before moving forward with it.

09:52:18 AM

Tyler Mounsey, Director
of Legislative Relations with the CBA, confirmed that the CBA is reviewing
the act but he has not received any substantive comments on the act.

09:53:04 AM

Commissioner
Scott asked that the commission consider this act because of regarding
its binding arbitration to help families resolve issues without going to
litigation. She asked the commission wait for additional input before deciding
to not move forward on it.

Commissioner Pike moved that the commission defer consideration on
the Uniform Family Law Arbitration Act until a future meeting. Commissioner
Love seconded, and the motion passed without objection.
