Rule 22 Confidentiality

Anything said or shared during foreclosure mediation is meant to stay private. This means you generally cannot use documents or statements from the mediation later in court. The main exception is if the case goes to a judicial foreclosure action. In that situation, evidence that was not privileged can be used later, but personal details like social security numbers, account numbers, and tax ID numbers still stay protected and get blacked out.

This rule also allows some limited information to come out if state law requires it. Specifically, Nevada law under NRS Chapter 107 may require the mediator or the parties to share certain details, even though most of what happens in mediation stays confidential. So while mediation is designed to be a safe space to talk openly, there are a few narrow situations where information can still be shared or used later.
