RULE 19. JOINDER OF PERSONS NEEDED FOR A JUST ADJUDICATION.

1. Certain persons shall be made parties to pending litigation if possible.  Those persons are as follows: persons in whose absence complete relief cannot be accorded among those persons already parties; or persons who claim an interest in the subject of the action and are situated so that the disposition of the action in their absence may impair their ability to protect their interest or leave one of the parties subject to a substantial risk of incurring multiple or inconsistent obligation.  If such person exists, the Court shall order that he be made a party.
2. If any person described in Rule 19(a) above cannot be made a party because he is beyond jurisdiction of the Court or otherwise, then and in such event, the Court shall determine whether the absent person is indispensable.  If the Court determines that the person is indispensable, the Court shall dismiss the action.  If not, the Court shall allow the action to proceed and take such protective measures by the shaping of relief or appropriate provisions of the judgment as will protect the rights of the person not joined and those persons who are parties to the lawsuit.
