TKC BREAKING AND EXCLUSIVE NEWS!!! CAB DRIVER LAWSUIT AGAINST KANSAS CITY FAILS!!! FEDERAL JUDGE SIDES WITH CITY!!!
Check a recent decision in a controversial Kansas City case of cab biz regulation.
RECENTLY, A FEDERAL JUDGE SIDED WITH CITY HALL IN A LAWSUIT BROUGHT BY KANSAS CITY CABBIES!!!
Because TKC believes in diversity, equality and the right of all people to work . . . I didn't title this one "Local Somalis Stay Losing" even though that would have been hilarious.
Anyhoo . . .
THANKS TO THE MOST KICK-ASS TKC TIPSTERS WE HAVE A COPY OF THE SUMMARY JUDGEMENT BACKING UP KANSAS CITY TAXI CAB REGS!!!
An AWESOME TKC TIPSTER provides even more insight into the decision that doesn't gloat but attempts to explain the outcome . . .
"After all the recent improvements in the industry (and the investment in service and technologies to support it) I must admit that we are pleased with the ruling but still feel pretty bad for the drivers, most of them are good people who may have been oversold the chances that they'd prevail."
Remember that last year plaintiffs claimed that KCMO supported a "monopolistic system" and they held a few protests that picked up media attention . . . And now a year later the claims didn't really take hold. Kansas City still advises visitors and residents to use only cabs with that kinda silly big, round KCMO Sticker on the vehicle.

Somali pirate cab company.
Only halfway through Friday and the news is already dead as a door nail. Going to be a hell of a boring weekend. Unless your into watching sports.
Tony should start doing weather. Tony KC Exclusive Forecast!!!!!! Hoodie, ball cap, butt huggers, sneakers.
That would be a big improvement from Lezac.
Being aroun d this shit as an AMERICAN driver for so long I told those guys they'd NEVER EVER beat George, Bates and City Hall. Its like beng a pew wee team against the 49s Ravens and AND the refs all at the same time.
They now cry about over 100K they gave lawyer...NOT A DIME FROM ME. FUCKING IDIOTS
Need to give credit to KCMO City Hall for ensuring the public's safety by taking correct measures to understand the ground transportation industry.
Bates and George are both pretty full of themselves but they are two of the best businessmen in the city. Probably why the drivers had to go to StL for a lawyer to steal their $.
Out of town lawyer uses naïve immigrant $ to finance long shot "constitutional" argument designed to work in every city if it worked. Sad and manipulative attmpt to get rich off poor people by a rich law firm from in Clayton, Mo.
George sucks Glazers nutsack must have been Glazer who made that comment at 8:13
Don't know about Glazer but 8:13 is right about one thing, KC lawyers know that those taxi guys have more lawyers and lobbyist than anybody in town and a lot of money to push back bs like these guys came up with.
