To grant Star Insurance Company’s motion to intervene. (Code Civ. Proc. §387.) Moving party to file its complaint in intervention within 10 days of the clerk’s service of the minute order.

Intervention as a matter of right pursuant to section 387, subdivision (b), requires a nonparty to show it claims an interest in the property or transaction involved in the litigation, and is so situated that any judgment rendered in its absence “may as a practical matter impair or impede that person's ability to protect that interest.” Labor Code section 3853 provides that an employer or employee may intervene at any time before trial; this has been held to be an unconditional right as contemplated by section 387(b).
