    ALLSTATE INSURANCE COMPANY, Appellant, v. James A. JOHNSON, as Personal Representative of the Estate of Gloria Vaughn, deceased, et al., Appellees.
    No. 85-396.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.
    Feb. 20, 1986.
    Richard S. Womble of Anderson & Hurt, P.A., Orlando, for appellant.
    Phyllis P. Riewe, Merritt Island, for ap-pellee Johnson.
    James L. Woodman of Smalbein, Eu-bank, Johnson, Rosier & Bussey, P.A., Rockledge, for appellee Anderson.
   COWART, Judge.

An insurer, Allstate, appeals an order denying its motion to intervene in a wrongful death action in which the estate of the decedent alleges that Allstate’s insured negligently shot and killed the decedent.

The insurer’s petition for intervention in effect seeks to have an adjudication that (1) the insured was late in filing a notice of claim, (2) the insurer was substantially prejudiced by the late notice of claim, (3) the insured’s action in killing plaintiffs decedent was intentional and willful rather than negligent, and (4) [by implication] that the insurer is not liable to defend or pay under its policy because of the prejudicial late notice of claim and because the insured’s actions were intentional rather than negligent.

A trial court does not abuse its discretion when it denies intervention because the would-be intervenor seeks to inject new issues into the pending action.

AFFIRMED.
