The purpose of the request, according to Westark, is to determine whether the interest of the proposed intervenors is indeed different from that of the Arkansas Health Department.\nThe 30-day extension in which to answer proposed intervenors\u2019 motion to intervene is granted to appellee Westark Christian Action Council.\nThe proposed intervenors pray in their response to Westark\u2019s motion for extension for an additional 20 days to file their brief, either as intervenors or as amici curiae, after this court rules on their motion to intervene. That motion, too, is granted.\nHolt, C.J., and Newbern, J., not participating.",
