What follows is an opinion from a United States Court of Appeals.
Intervenors who participated as parties at the courts of appeals should be counted as either appellants or respondents when it can be determined whose position they supported. For example, if there were two plaintiffs who lost in district court, appealed, and were joined by four intervenors who also asked the court of appeals to reverse the district court, the number of appellants should be coded as six.
When coding the detailed nature of participants, use your personal knowledge about the participants, if you are completely confident of the accuracy of your knowledge, even if the specific information is not in the opinion. For example, if "IBM" is listed as the appellant it could be classified as "clearly national or international in scope" even if the opinion did not indicate the scope of the business. 

Your task concerns the first listed appellant. The nature of this litigant falls into the category "miscellaneous". Your task is to determine which of the following categories best describes the litigant.

Tlie Honorable Tom O. Clark, Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court, Retired, sitting by designation.
PER CURIAM.
Appellants filed a complaint in the District Court that purported to assert three “causes of action.” The court dismissed the complaint for failure to state a claim upon which relief could be granted but allowed appellants leave to amend to cure defects that the court specifically noted. Appellants then filed an amended complaint, which the court again dismissed for the reason that appellants had not complied sufficiently with the court’s orders and thus had not stated claims upon which relief could be granted. Pursuant to the court’s directions, appellants filed a second amended complaint. This time the court found that appellants’ first “cause of action” did not state a claim upon which relief could be granted and that appellants’ second “cause of action” was defective in the manner twice previously specified. Accordingly, the court dismissed the complaint with prejudice for failure to state claims upon which relief could be granted and for failure to comply with the court’s prior orders. This appeal followed.
Appellants’ counsel has conceded in argument upon this appeal that the first “cause of action” did not state a claim upon which relief could be granted, and we therefore affirm the judgment of the District Court with respect to this part of the complaint. With respect to the remainder of the complaint, we are hard-pressed to find an abuse of discretion in the court’s dismissal, and do so only because we believe that the interests of justice require that appellants be afforded one more opportunity to conform their pleadings to the court’s orders. Therefore, with respect to the first “cause of action” stated in the complaint, the judgment of the District Court is affirmed, and with respect to the remainder of the complaint, the judgment of the District Court is reversed and the case is remanded with directions to allow appellants leave to amend their complaint to conform specifically to the previous orders of the District Court and to such further requirements as the court in its discretion may direct.
