OPINION
_________________________
CLAY, Circuit Judge. Three days after the district court denied Plaintiff Frederick
Grainger, Jr.’s motion for class certification based on his inability to serve as a class
representative, Brian Behovitz moved to intervene as a new putative class representative.
Behovitz now appeals the district court’s denial of his motion to intervene as of right and
permissively under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 24. For the reasons set forth below, we
AFFIRM the district court’s denial of Behovitz’s motion to intervene. |
