Alternative Dispute Resolution is a mechanism by which different types of legal disputes are resolved through out-of-court processes like arbitration, and mediation as an alternative to civil litigation. ADR methods can be effective in reducing the time, money, and adversarial nature associated with traditional court-based proceedings.
Star is a city in northwestern Ada County, Idaho, United States. The population was 1,795 at the 2000 census.

Today it is a growing town west of Boise and its schools are shared with Middleton School District and Meridian School District. Star is part of the Boise City–Nampa, Idaho Metropolitan Statistical Area.
