Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• “In the view we take of the case, [Rule 19(b)], which applies only when it has been shown that the person involved ‘cannot be made a party,’ is not relevant. There has been no showing that Hughes cannot be made a party and thus we do not reach the balancing test.”
