Any reference to a mediation during any subsequent trial is
an irregularity in the proceedings of the trial for the purposes of
Section 657 of the Code of Civil Procedure.  Any reference to a
mediation during any other subsequent noncriminal proceeding is
grounds for vacating or modifying the decision in that proceeding, in
whole or in part, and granting a new or further hearing on all or
part of the issues, if the reference materially affected the
substantial rights of the party requesting relief.
