(A) Whenever a vessel or other property is seized, attached or arrested and is in
the custody of the Court, anyone asserting a maritime lien or a writ of foreign attachment
against the vessel or property may upon motion to the court, with notice to counsel of
record, be permitted to intervene.
(B) Intervenors under this rule shall be liable for advancing expenses of justice
together with the party originally effecting seizure on any reasonable basis determined by
the Court. Intervenors may be required by the Marshal to advance their share of
expenses accrued to the date of intervention and expected future expenses of justice giving
due regard to the respective amounts of the various claims. Relief from such assessment
may be granted by the Court upon motion.
(C) Release of seizure or dismissal by the party originally effecting seizure shall
not quash the seizure if there remains pending any claim by intervenors, unless by
unanimous consent of intervenors or order of Court.
