How it works

  • Write an opening statement. State your purpose in bringing this matter to trial; tell what you're trying to achieve. If the case involves a counterparty, they will be requested to submit an opening statement also.
  • Decide whether to divide your trial into separate Issues. Complex cases can be broken into more than one issue to be considered. Use the control to organize your case in two or more issues. If you use this option, provide a brief description of each issue.
  • Trial participants — including advocates for each side, experts, neutrals, and others — add comments, ask questions, and offer resolution suggestions to resolve your case.
  • The public votes to choose the resolution that best resolves the case; you and the other party are presented with the results and decide if one or more of them offer an acceptable way to settle the case.
  • For general topics that don't involve a specific counterparty — e.g., public controversies — top-ranked solutions will remain published on the Internet and will continue to invite public comment and ranking.
