Marc Blubaugh quoted in Freight Waves | “California’s AB5 upheld by appeals court panel in Uber/Postmates case”
June 12, 2024
Marc Blubaugh Co Chair of Benesch’s Transportation & Logistics Practice Group quoted in FreightWaves article “California’s AB5 upheld by appeals court panel in Uber/Postmates case.”
Blubaugh said the Uber/Postmates decision is not good news for the CTA/OOIDA appeal of its AB5 case, which most legal experts were giving small odds of success already. “Today’s opinion portends that CTA will likely face a highly skeptical appellate panel with respect to CTA’s Equal Protection claim,” Blubaugh said. “After all, Judge Benitez already ruled that CTA’s Equal Protection failed as a matter of law, and this appellate decision is consistent with that holding.”
