Firstly, David Montee is a boss. I could only think of Merchant and the A nus play, as the Reduced Shakespeare Company refer to it.
You could stretch and include The Tempest, possibly, and we're talking Mrs. Incredible/Mr. Fantastic stretchy, and maybe the Prince's mediation after Tybalt and Mercutio's death. Prince acts as Judge, Benvolio gives impassioned defense, and everyone remembers the way that Natasha Perry says the line, "I beg for justice, which thou, prince, must give; Romeo slew Tybalt, Romeo must not live!"
Calling it a mediation probably falls wide of the mark, though. :)

Hey all,
I have a judicial officer who will be coming in to teach a class and wants to use scenes from Shakespeare in her presentation. If you had to choose 1 scene from Shakespeare that was judicial in nature (preferably in a courtroom environment) what would you choose?
