Court halts ridesharing service Uber in Germany

A court has barred ridesharing service Uber from operating in Germany, the latest shot in the popular app's fight with taxi drivers worldwide. Frankfurt state court spokesman Arne Hasse said Tuesday the decision that Uber can't offer its services without a specific permit under German transport laws applies nationwide. The injunction applies pending a full hearing of a suit brought against Uber by Taxi Deutschland, a German cab association that also offers its own taxi-ordering app. The suit is being heard in Frankfurt because it is one of the several German cities in which Uber operates. San Francisco-based Uber said in a statement it would use "all legal means" to fight the case. "It's never a good idea to limit people's choices," Uber said. "We believe that innovation and competition is good for everyone — it profits both drivers and passengers." The ruling comes after Berlin authorities last month barred Uber from operating in the capital because of safety concerns.

"The Drummond & Nelson Difference" – Aggressive Representation

Getting the right representation begins with getting the right attorney. An attorney should not be selected solely based on a billboard, slogan, or advertised alleged fee reductions. If you have been injured or charged with a crime, you need an experienced attorney who will aggressively advocate for you to get the best possible outcome in your case.

Our attorneys have extensive trial and negotiation experience in all areas of criminal defense in Clark County Justice Courts, District Courts, Las Vegas Municipal Courts, Henderson Municipal Courts, North Las Vegas Municipal Courts and Nevada Federal Court. Our attorneys are licensed to practice law in all State and Federal Courts in Nevada.

When investigating which attorney to hire, remember that there is no charge for your initial
consultation with our office to discuss your case. We work on a contingency fee basis on injury cases, meaning you don't pay us any up-front fees since we would be paid out of the amount of your recovery. If you live in Las Vegas or were a tourist or visitor when your injury or alleged criminal conduct occurred, contact us for a free initial consultation to discuss your rights and the best approach to resolving your case successfully. Hire Drummond & Nelson and you'll meet one-on-one with an attorney who will be personally involved in every aspect of your case.

California high court strikes measure from ballot

The California Supreme Court on Monday blocked an advisory measure backed by Democrats from the November ballot. By a 5-1 vote, the court ordered the removal of Proposition 49, which would have asked voters if they want a federal constitutional amendment to overturn the U.S. Supreme Court's so-called Citizens United ruling allowing unlimited corporate spending in elections. The majority opinion said no harm will come from removing the nonbinding measure while courts determine its validity. The court said it would consider the issue in more detail in September. Writing separately, Justice Goodwin Liu agreed with the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association, an anti-tax group that filed a lawsuit seeking to remove the measure from the ballot. The group argued that advisory measures are not a proper use of the ballot. Chief Justice Tani Cantil-Sakauye said she would have allowed placing the proposition on the ballot, as a divided appeals court had ruled earlier. The bill to place the measure on the ballot was introduced by Sen. Ted Lieu, D-Torrance, and it passed over Republicans' opposition. Brown, a Democrat, let the bill become law without his signature. Lieu's Sacramento office didn't return a phone call placed late Monday.
