NJSBA Family Law Section

there is a rule that we are not supposed to represent a party that has come before us in ESP. (however I don't know the rule number off the top of my head).

Yes, that is what I thought. Just thought I would check anyway.

Thank you.

However, I think if you wanted to continue as a mediator in private mediation you would be permitted to take on that role if both parties wanted to select you.

I would never do that. You've learned too much about the adverse party's case and there may even have been some candid admissions by the other attorney to the panelists that were stated in expectation that they were just for the panelists ears. I don't know about an ethics rule but I cannot imagine any judge who would not disqualify you if asked to do so.
