1Opinion of the Court
McWILLIAMS, Circuit Judge.
In this appeal, we are asked to overrule our holding in Gas Service Co. v. Hunt, 183 F.2d 417 (10th Cir. 1950), that where the insured brings an action against a tort-feasor who has damaged the insured’s property and where the insurer under its policy of insurance with the insured has paid the insured part, but not all, of the loss thus incurred, the insurer, on timely motion by the tort-feasor, should be joined as a party plaintiff. We decline to thus overrule, and accordingly affirm the judgment of the trial court.
