DECISION/ENTRY DENYING ARTHUR WEST'S MOTION TO INTERVENE, AND GRANTING ARTHUR WEST, AMERICAN CIVIL LIBERTIES UNION, AND AMERICAN CIVIL LIBERTIES UNION OF OHIO FOUNDATION LEAVE TO FILE AMICUS CURIAE BRIEFS

Document Summary

The court denies Arthur West's motion to intervene in the case, finding his interests are adequately represented by existing parties. The court grants leave to Arthur West, the American Civil Liberties Union, and the American Civil Liberties Union of Ohio Foundation to file amicus curiae briefs. The order allows parties to respond to these briefs without further court approval.

Filing Date

Wednesday, May 17, 2023

Client Summary

The court has decided that Arthur West cannot join the case because his interests are already covered by the parties involved. However, the court has allowed Arthur West and two organizations, the American Civil Liberties Union and the American Civil Liberties Union of Ohio Foundation, to submit their opinions and information as friends of the court. This means they can share their thoughts on the case, and the other parties can respond to what they say without needing extra permission from the court.
