District Court of Appeal of Florida

An order denying a wife's motions to intervene and set aside the judicial sale of her marital home is reversed where the court abused its discretion in denying the motion since the wife -- who was not named as a party in the foreclosure suit -- was, at the least, a necessary party who had a sufficient stake in the outcome to permit her to intervene and seek whatever relief might be available to her, and her equity of redemption was extinguished without due process.
