Rosa Parks Probate Dispute to Mediation

I've blogged about the Rosa Parks guardianship and probate litigation on a number of occasions, most recently here.    According to this story, the parties have agreed to mediation of the dispute -- that's good news.  Unfortunately, the mediator is retired Judge Adam Shakoor, who is one of Mrs. Parks' executors and is accused of acting inappropriately with respect to Mrs. Parks' affairs during her life.  One of the attorneys for Mrs. Parks' heirs says that he believes Judge Shakoor "will be fair" -- if that's the case, then why does this dispute even exist in the first place?
