   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  14-1785
   U.S. District Court for the District of North Dakota - Bismarck   
   [PUBLISHED] [Colloton, Author,with Loken and Beam, Circuit Judges] 
   Civil case - Quiet Title Act of 1972. Where four North Dakota counties 
   sued the United States to quiet title to alleged rights-of-way along 
   section lines that run throughout lands owned by the United States in the 
   Dakota Prairie Grassland area in North Dakota, the district court did not 
   err in denying a motion by three nonprofit environmental groups to 
   intervene; the groups had not overcome of the presumption of adequate 
   representation by the United States and the court did not err in denying 
   their motion to intervene as of right under Rule 24(a); the district court 
   did not abuse its discretion by denying permissive intervention out of 
   concerns over the delay which could arise by the interjection of issues 
   unrelated to quieting title.
