Abstract

This research seeks to reflect on the intervention of third parties who are co-owners of the collective or diffuse action in the field of consumption and to establish according to procedural dogmatics what is the way in which they should appear in a pending process. To this end, the active legitimation of the subjects who can exercise actions of collective and diffuse interest in the field of consumption is analysed, the traditional forms of third-party intervention that case law has applied to the third party co-owner of these actions are objected, it is postulated that the correct figure is that of the co-litigant adhesive third party and the main characteristics of this type of intervention are indicated.
