→The Family Law Act and Alternatives to Court
The act also allows the court to require people involved in a court proceeding to attempt to resolve their dispute out of court, and to attend counselling, at s. 224:
<blockquote><tt>'''224''' (1) A court may make an order to do one or both of the following:</tt></blockquote>
<blockquote><blockquote><tt>(a) require the parties to participate in family dispute resolution;</tt></blockquote></blockquote>
<blockquote><blockquote><tt>(b) require one or more parties or, without the consent of the child's guardian, a child, to attend counselling, specified services or programs.</tt></blockquote></blockquote>
