551. If the defendant is requiring the intervention of a third person, the defendant explains the grounds for the intervention to the court clerk and files the exhibits in support of the related contentions with the court office within 10 days of the application for intervention. The court clerk informs the plaintiff and notifies the application and the defence to the intervenor, specifying that the intervenor’s attendance is required on the defendant’s request. The court clerk also informs the intervenor, as if the latter were a defendant, of the options available and the applicable time limits.
