1. The intervention in a co-litigation refers to a case where the subject matter of a lawsuit is determined jointly against either party and a third party, and the third party is participating in a lawsuit pending in the court and is subject to Article 67 of the Civil Procedure Act as an indispensable co-litigation as a result of that intervention.
Therefore, a co-litigation is permitted to a third party only when the purpose of the lawsuit is determined jointly with either of the parties and a third party.

The intervenor's application for the intervention in
In the end, the Intervenor’s motion for intervention in the co-litigation is deemed to be either ambiguous or unlawful, and it is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices.
