Spanish term

contempla mediación

Spanish to English Law/Patents Law (general) Duties of a local court
Buen día a todos:

Estoy traduciendo un documento relacionado con los deberes o más bien responsabilidades de los juzgados locales y tengo una duda con la expresión a continuación:

Facultades de los juzgados locales:

Dicta las sentencias conforme ley.
En casos que la Ley //contempla mediación//, es el responsable de certificar a facilitadores judiciales rurales y urbanos, para disminuir la tasa de casos que llegan al Juzgado y que pueden resolverse a través de diálogo en la misma comunidad.

De antemano, gracias por su apoyo.

provides for/prescribes mediation

Although "contemplar" is a little broad in its meaning (from "order" to "consider"), I would assume this refers to cases where the law requires mediation to be carried out. Having said that, both "prescribe" and "provide" are sufficiently vague to cover it.

I don't think there is any doubt about "mediation".

prescribe
1.1 Recommend (a substance or action) as something beneficial.
‘marriage is often prescribed as a universal remedy’
...
2 State authoritatively or as a rule that (an action or procedure) should be carried out.

‘rules prescribing five acts for a play are purely arbitrary’

la legislación actual no contempla este caso — there is no provision for a situation of this kind in the current legislation / the current legislation does not provide for a situation of this kind
