intervention - the procedure by which a third person, not originally a party to the suit, but claiming an interest in the subject matter, comes into the case, in order to protect his right or interpose his claim
Seaduses sätestatud juhtudel kaasab kohus riigi- või kohaliku omavalitsuse asutuse protsessi asja kohta arvamuse andmiseks. Kui kohus ei ole seda teinud, võib see asutus astuda protsessi omal algatusel.
With the exception of cases relating to disputes between the Communities and their servants, an appeal may also be brought by Member States and institutions of the Communities which did not intervene in the proceedings before the Court of First Instance.
