1Opinion of the Court
QUINN, Chief Justice.
The department of corrections (department) appeals an order of the district court denying the department’s application to intervene in a criminal case and to file a Crim.P. 35(a) motion to correct an illegal sentence, and further challenges the district court’s sentencing of a misdemeanor offender over the age of twenty-one years to the custody of the executive director of the department. 1 We conclude that the district court did not err in denying the department’s motion to intervene, and we therefore dismiss the department’s appeal on the legality of the sentence.
