Tenn. Comp. R. & Regs. 0180-06-.26 - INTERVENTION

(1) All petitions for leave to intervene in a pending contested case should be filed with the Commissioner, Hearing Officer, or Administrative Law Judge assigned to hear the case. Said petitions should detail sufficient "injury in fact" as would entitle one prospectively to judicial review under T.C.A. § 4-5-117.

(2) This consideration together with whether prospective intervenor interests are adequately represented and whether admittance of a new party will render the hearing unmanageable are factors to be weighed by the Commissioner, Hearing Officer, or Administrative Law Judge in determining whether a person should be admitted as a party.
