  • emphasizing that although a putative intervenor may not be barred from raising the same issues in a different proceeding, the putative intervenor could nevertheless be harmed by an unfavorable ruling on the issues in the case that was then before the court
  • denial of intervention, apparently to avoid delay, generated more delay
  • involuntary joinder is favored by “the great public interest, especially in these explosive days of ever- increasing dockets, of having a disposition at a single time of as much of the controversy to as many of the parties as is fairly possible consistent with due process”
