Summary
In Gaddy, the court did not strictly apply either the Second Circuit's or the Eighth Circuit's approach and instead focused its analysis on weighing and balancing the plaintiff's need for the information sought with the defendant's interest in its attorney-client relationship. Id. at *3-4; see also Bank of Am., 2014 WL 4851853, at *3 (using the same weighing-and-balancing approach).

JEFFREY GADDY, Plaintiff, v. TEREX CORPORATION, et al., Defendants.
OPINION AND ORDER
This matter is before the Court on Movant American Interstate Insurance Company's ("Movant") Motion to Intervene [156] (the "Motion"). Having read and considered the Motion, the Court finds that Movant's interests are not adequately protected by any party to this action, and Movant is entitled to intervene pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 24(a)(2). Movant shall not be named in the style of this case. The Court will decide at a later time the appropriate trial process to address Movant's interests.
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Movant American Interstate Insurance Company's Motion to Intervene [156] is GRANTED.
SO ORDERED this 28th day of October, 2015.
