Union to challenge Las Vegas cab ordinance in District Court
Teamster Local 881 leaders prepared in District Court to file a complaint seeking an injunction against portions of the cab ordinance governing driver fees and disciplinary procedures. Richard Thomas said the move is planned, not tied to the Las Vegas Cab Drivers Association’s recent action, which he claims harms the ordinance and drivers’ interests. The association obtained a temporary restraining order on the $25 fee, while the union seeks fee reductions and fairer hearing procedures. Thomas called the association a small minority pursuing its own financial interests and warned of court action to protect the broader industry.
