No, formal prosecution means that the parties bring a lawsuit to the people's court, and the people's court will try it according to legal procedures. Multi-mediation is the mediation before court proceedings, including people's mediation, administrative mediation, industry mediation and so on. The two sides reached an agreement to resolve the dispute through voluntary and equal consultation. It is a non-litigation dispute resolution mechanism. If mediation fails, the court will formally file a case, so more mediation is not a formal prosecution. "Multi-mediation" can not only meet the diverse needs of the masses to solve disputes, but also ease the pressure on the court to handle cases. At the same time, there are no strict and complicated procedural restrictions, which can resolve conflicts in a very short time and save a lot of time and energy for themselves and each other.
