Hill v. Western Electric Co.
Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit
1Opinion of the Court
JAMES DICKSON PHILLIPS, Circuit Judge:
In this appeal, three unsuccessful applicants for employment with Western Electric Company (Western) challenge the denial of their motion to intervene in a class action against Western as representatives of a portion of the class consisting of blacks and females who have discriminatorily been denied employment at Western’s Arlington, Virginia facility. We vacate the order denying intervention on the basis that the district court did not adequately assess the motion, and remand for reconsideration of the motion in light of our discussion in this opinion.
