R. Civ. P. 24(a). The standards for intervention are: (1) timeliness of the application; (2) the applicant has a substantial legal interest in the case; 3) impairment of the applicant's ability to protect that interest in the absence of intervention; and (4) inadequate representation by parties before the court. The District Court denied PTP's petition on the basis it was untimely, or alternatively because PTP cannot show its interests are not adequately represented by Defendant Peninsula Township. Under the facts in this case and applicable law, PTP satisfies each standard, so intervention should be granted. . Certificate of Service: 08/24/2026. [26-1740] (TJA) [Entered: 08/24/2026 08:55 AM] |
