If the director learns that the creditor is barred from taking action against the farm borrower by the automatic stay provision of 11 U.S.C. Section 362, the director shall terminate the mediation proceeding, subject to reopening without filing a new request for mediation, in the event the automatic stay is lifted. The 42-day mediation period shall commence from the date the director receives notice that the stay has been lifted. The proceedings shall otherwise follow the time periods and rules applicable to mediation proceedings.
