Question

Charley, Donald, and Mark met to try to finalize the formation of a joint venture to obtain a Mini Cooper dealership for New Britain, Connecticut. Unfortunately, the meeting went from bad to worse, with all of the parties blaming the others for the collapse of the deal. Donald and Mark stormed out immediately, heading for their cars while still fuming about the meeting. Charley followed several minutes later, still preoccupied over what he saw as the lack of vision of his business partners. No one is quite sure what happened next, but the result was a serious accident in the parking lot in which Charley, while walking to his car, was caught between Mark and Donald's cars as they collided. Charley was seriously injured. Donald and Mark escaped without physical injury, but both suffered significant damage to their cars. Because of a longstanding business relationship, Charley does not want to sue Donald for breach of contract, and Donald does not want to sue Charley for breach of contract. Charley does, however, sue Donald for his injuries, claiming that Donald was driving negligently, causing the accident. The suit is filed in federal court based on diversity jurisdiction (Charley is from Connecticut, Donald is from Delaware, and Mark is from Maine). Donald wants to bring Mark into this lawsuit. What procedural vehicles could he use?
