UK: Uber appeal line-up under review; Union may join TfL

 |  December 11, 2017

Uber’s appeal against the loss of its London license should begin on April 30, but might be delayed until June, a British judge said on Monday, December 11, at a preliminary hearing at Westminster Magistrate’s Court.

There will be two further preliminary hearings on Tuesday and Wednesday next week to decide whether a trade union and the London Taxi Drivers’ Association can join Uber and transport regulator Transport for London (TfL) in the case.

TfL ruled in September that the ride-hailing service’s approach and conduct was not fit and proper to hold a private vehicle hire license.

Uber’s legal appeal against TfL is likely to be long and costly, and it’s one of many battles the company is fighting in the UK.
