United States Fifth Circuit

In proceedings wherein a group of African-American students and parents from a Mississippi county sought to intervene in litigation concerning the desegregation of the county's schools, denial of their motion to intervene is affirmed as the district court correctly concluded that they did not timely file their motion to intervene.
