United States Fifth Circuit
Adam Joseph Resources v. CNA Metals Ltd., 17-20685

The firm's client and the opposing party had allegedly conspired to cheat it out of its deserved attorney fee for work on a matter involving a foreign arbitral award. Remanded with directions to permit intervention and consider the law firm's claims on the merits.
