Before FAGG, BOWMAN, and HANSEN, Circuit Judges.
                              _____________


PER CURIAM.


     Nineteen would-be intervenors appeal the district court's order
denying as untimely under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 24 their petition
to intervene in an action involving a 1990 civil judgment against Tony
Alamo.   Having carefully reviewed the record and the partes' briefs, we
conclude no error of law appears, and an extended opinion is unwarranted.
Accordingly, we affirm.     See 8th Cir. R. 47B.


     A true copy.


              Attest:


                   CLERK, U.S. COURT OF APPEALS, EIGHTH CIRCUIT.
