  18. ODR Advantages • Asynchonous interaction • - “cooling” distance- you don’t have to react immediately • Pre-communication re-framing • Concurrent caucusing • Archived communication • - re-usable language- text-based interaction • Automated procedures (the “fourth side”)

  19. ODR Challenges • “ODR” is a bad acronym (too late) • Online, you lose important information • - body language- non-verbal cues • It’s easy for people to drop out or stonewall • People are more strategic online • - more likely to lie- less trusting of information • Privacy and confidentiality

  20. The Evolution of ODR • The National Center for Technology and Dispute Resolution: http://odr.info • ABA DR Section ODR Committee, ACR Online Section • ADR Cyberweekhttp://adrhub.com 10/29-11/2 • Text book: Online Dispute Resolution: Theory and Practice • ODR Forums • 13th Silicon Valley, June 2014 www.odr2014.org • 12th Montreal, 11th Prague, 10th Chennai, 9th Buenos Aires – prior forums held in Cairo, Hong Kong, Melbourne, Geneva, and Liverpool

  21. Government Pushing ODR’s Advance Laws are being passed around the world that require ODR: • “…each case would proceed through four phases.  The first phase would be self-help dispute resolution using on-line, interactive tools.  If that did not result in resolution, the second phase would be on-line, supervised negotiations. Assuming no resolution, the third phase would involve direct intervention by a case manager to attempt to facilitate a settlement.  The final stage would be a tribunal hearing, which could take place on-line.” • “…the Commission agreed that a Working Group should be established to undertake work in the field of online dispute resolution (ODR) relating to cross-border electronic commerce transactions…to create a global system for the resolution of cross-border disputes involving high-volume, low-value transactions.”* • “The Regulation … establishes a EU-wide ODR Platform that will facilitate the resolution of consumer disputes related to the cross-border (and probably also domestic) online sale of goods and provision of services arising from e-commerce...” * The Working Group is composed of Algeria, Argentina, Armenia, Australia , Austria, Bahrain, Benin, Bolivia, Botswana, Brazil, Bulgaria, Cameroon, Canada, Chile, China, Colombia, CzechRepublic, Egypt, El Salvador, Fiji, France, Gabon, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Honduras, India, Iran, Israel, Italy, Japan, Jordan, Kenya, Latvia, Malaysia, Malta, Mauritius, Mexico, Morocco, Namibia, Nigeria, Norway, Pakistan, Paraguay, Philippines, Poland, Republic of Korea, Russian Federation, Senegal, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Turkey, Uganda, Ukraine, United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, United States of America and Venezuela. • BC Civil Resolution Tribunal Act • UNCITRAL ODR Working Group • EU Regulation: Consumer Online Dispute Resolution
