Key v. Walker

How courts have described this case

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

• denying motion to intervene where proposed intervenors “fail to demonstrate that their claim or defense shares a common question of law or fact with this... proceeding”
• denying a permissive motion to intervene because, inter alia, the extraneous issues proposed intervenor sought to litigate did not bear on the ultimate issue and could be resolved in a pending state court action
• “That the Proposed Intervenors’ interest turns on another court’s prospective ruling underscores the contingent nature of the Proposed Intervenors’ interest.”
• “Timeliness is not defined by the Rule, and is therefore left largely to the court’s discretion which must be guided by consideration of all of the circumstances surrounding the requested intervention.” (citation omitted)
• proposed intervenors lacked standing to seek vacatur of an arbitration award where their alleged injury in fact was that confirmation of the award would adversely affect their defenses in a separate action to which the proposed intervenors were parties
