1 Filing a mediation request with an ombudsman does not rule out civil action and does not prevent such from being initiated.
2 After bringing proceedings before an ombudsman, the plaintiff may unilaterally waive conciliation proceedings under the Civil Procedure Code1.
3 The ombudsman shall terminate proceedings once a conciliation authority, a court, a court of arbitration or an administrative authority begins dealing with the case.
