3. The Statement in intervention shall contain:
   1. a statement as to the issues involving the intervener and one or more of the parties, and their connection to the matters in dispute;
   2. the arguments of law; and
   3. the facts and evidence relied on.
4. The intervener shall be treated as a party, unless otherwise ordered by the Court.
