Civil Procedure — intervention

Several recall campaign committees appeal an order denying their motion to intervene in a suit brought by Governor Scott Walker’s campaign committee and an elector against the Government Accountability Board. We conclude that the recall committees are entitled to intervene as a matter of right. Therefore, we reverse the order denying intervention and remand with directions for the circuit court to vacate its later rulings that were made without the participation of the intervenors. This opinion will not be published.
