Description
Intervenors Dale Eugene Brown, George R. Johnson, James Austin, Jr., and Alvin Lee Pitts (the "Intervenors") appeal the district courts order granting the original Plaintiffs (the "Dillard Plaintiffs") motion to dismiss the Intervenors complaint. The Intervenors sought to intervene as plaintiffs in order to challenge the district courts 1988 remedial order which changed the size of the Baldwin County Commission from four commissioners to seven in order to remedy a violation of section 2 of the Voting Rights Act. The district court dismissed the Intervenors complaint, holding that while the Intervenors had standing to bring their complaint, they failed to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. Because we conclude that the district court correctly found that the Intervenors had standing to bring their claims, but incorrectly held that they failed to state a claim, we reverse the district courts order and remand for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
