In this paper, we propose a local multilevel preconditioner for the mortar finite element approximations of the elliptic problems. With some mesh assumptions on the interface, we prove that the condition number of the preconditioned systems is independent of the large jump of the coefficients but depends on the mesh levels around the cross points. Some numerical experiments are presented to confirm our theoretical results.
