    Carroll DUNSCOMBE, Appellant, v. BEACH CLUB COLONY OF STUART, INC., et al., Appellees.
    No. 71-904.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
    July 17, 1972.
    Rehearing Denied Aug. 10, 1972.
    Carroll Dunscombe, Stuart, for appellant.
    No appearance for appellees.
   PER CURIAM.

Appellant brings this appeal from an order denying his motion to intervene, individually and as a class representative, in a suit pending before the lower court. It is clear from the allegations of his motion to intervene that appellant’s only interest in the litigation was that of a concerned citizen and taxpayer. It also appears that appellant was attempting to inject new issues into the proceedings. Consequently, the ruling on the motion was a matter within the sound discretion of the court. Riviera Club v. Belle Mead Development Corp., 1939, 141 Fla. 538, 194 So. 783; Oster v. Cay Construction Co., Fla.App. 1967, 204 So.2d 539; Charlotte County Development Commission v. Lord, Fla.App.1965, 180 So.2d 198; and 24 Fla.Jur., Parties, §§ 20 and 31. We find no abuse of discretion.

The order appealed is affirmed.
