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.
Coleman is a city in Midland County of the U.S. state of Michigan. As of the 2000 census, the city population was 1,296. In 1994, a meteorite known as the "Coleman meteorite" fell near the city, which is ironic because the community schools' mascot are the Coleman Comets.
