Asks That PSC Orders Be Set Aside

A bill of complaint to vacate several Public Services Commission orders retaining 190 motor transportation freight routes was filed in Equity Court this month by Boyer Transportation Company of Knoxville. Defendants include PSC members and Remsburg Brothers Transportation Company. Associate Judge Schnauffer ordered them to show cause within 25 days. The suit contends PSC denials and grants for freight permits from Weverton to Shepherdstown and Frederick to Baltimore are improper and not in the public interest. The petition argues Remsburg refused to ship milk to Baltimore, harming shippers and local markets while Boyer could adequately serve the need. It asserts the Baltimore permit is unnecessary and that public welfare is served without it. The case cites milk market dynamics and alleges PSC orders are arbitrary and unjust. The filing names Francis Petroti and Benjamin Rosenstock as counsel. The record notes ongoing public-interest consideration and potential irreparable harm if relief is not granted.
