Plaintiffs, 

v.

Defendants. 

Case No. 6:15-cv-01517-TC 

MOTION TO INTERVENE 

Request for Oral Argument 

Case 6:15-cv-01517-AA Document 14 Filed 11/12/15 Page 1 of 5

MOTION TO INTERVENE

Pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 24(a), Proposed Intervenor-Defendants move the Court for an 

order allowing them to intervene as defendants in this case as of right with full rights as parties. 

In the alternative, Proposed Intervenor-Defendants move the Court for an order allowing them to 

intervene permissively pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 24(b) with the same rights as parties. Pursuant 

to Local Rule 7-1, the Proposed Intervenor-Defendants have conferred with counsel for both 

Defendants and Plaintiffs and have been unable to resolve their dispute. Defendants do not 

object to intervention by the Proposed Intervenor-Defendants. Counsel for Plaintiffs object to 

intervention by the Proposed Intervenor-Defendants. 

In support of this motion, Proposed Intervenor-Defendants respectfully refer the Court to 

the accompanying memorandum of law and supporting declarations, filed contemporaneously 

herewith. Proposed Intervenor-Defendants have also contemporaneously filed a motion to 

dismiss and supporting memorandum of law in line with Fed. R. Civ. P. 24(c). Proposed 

Intervenor-Defendant the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) represents small and 

large manufacturers in every industrial sector and in all 50 states. Proposed IntervenorDefendant American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers (AFPM) is a national trade 

association whose members include virtually all United States refiners and petrochemical 

manufacturers. Proposed Intervenor-Defendant American Petroleum Institute (API) is a national 

trade association whose members include over 625 oil and natural gas companies representing all 

facets of the oil and natural gas industry and who collectively provide most of the nation’s 

energy. 

Plaintiffs seek to require that greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions be swiftly phased out 

under a national remedial plan that will require a global reduction in GHG emissions of at least

6% per year. If Plaintiffs succeed, each of the Proposed Intervenor-Defendants’ members will be 

harmed in various ways. For example, each Proposed Intervenor-Defendants’ member that 

produces, refines, uses, or sells conventional fossil fuels will be harmed, as Plaintiffs’ suit seeks 

the virtual elimination of use of such fuels in the United States. More generally, the dramatic 

reduction in U.S. GHG emissions that Plaintiffs seek would increase production and 

transportation costs for all of the Proposed Intervenor-Defendants, decreasing their global 

competitiveness and driving jobs and businesses abroad. Because the Proposed IntervenorDefendants have significantly protectable interests at stake in this litigation, they should be 

permitted to intervene as of right. In the alternative, the Proposed Intervenor-Defendants request 

that they be granted permissive intervention. 

WHEREFORE, Proposed Intervenor-Defendants respectfully request that their motion to 

intervene be granted.
