APPLICATION TO INTERVENE AS A DEFENDANT

Pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 24(a)(b), William Thomas applies for leave to intervene in this action. Thomas has an interest relating to the constitutionally protected activity which is the subject of the action; he is so situated that disposition of the action, as a practical matter, may impede or impair his ability to protect that interest. Additionally, Thomas' interests are represented inadequately by the existing parties to the suit.

Pursuant to local rule 301(a), "a .. legal memorandum with citation of authorities in support of the relief requested," accompanies this application.

Respectfully submitted this ___th day of May, 1996,
