WOODALL, Justice

(dissenting).

“An intervenor must have a direct, substantial, and legally protectable interest in the proceeding.” State Highway Dep’t v. Parsons, 623 So.2d 285, 290 (Ala.1993). I am convinced that Sheila Tack, Loyce Fisher, and Katherine Nagel had no such interest in this proceeding. Therefore, I must conclude that the trial court erred in granting their Ala. R. Civ. P. 24(b)(2) motion for permissive intervention. I respectfully dissent.

MOORE, C.J., concurs.
