During a mediation, Mr Wilson failed to indicate to the other party that the mediator was his long time close friend and colleague in the board of the same religious congregation (one being president, the other VP). The mediation went on for an entire day, without one acknowledging the other, even in... the very first minutes when the mediator asked if there was any knowledge by either party of any potential conflict of interest, between himself and them. Their (quite) intimate relationship was only discovered several months after the mediation was completed (very unsuccessfully for the "other" party).
