MURDOCK, Justice
(concurring in the result).
I concur in the result. I write in reference to the assertion in the main opinion that “[i]f a judgment is entered for Safeway and Keith Cooper’s estate and [Johnnie] Baker are not parties to the action, then Keith Cooper’s estate and Baker [will be] foreclosed by the doctrines of res judi-cata and/or collateral estoppel from pursuing their interests.” 15 So.3d at 510. Although I question that assertion, I agree that, in light of Rule 24(a), Ala. R. Civ. P., the trial court erred in denying the motion to intervene filed by the estate of Keith Cooper and Baker.
COBB, C.J., concurs.
