AB5 3-ring legal circus: Full federal appeals court may hear Olson case

The “other” AB5 case in California — overshadowed by the better-known case brought by the California Trucking Association (CTA) — is awaiting word from the full 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on what happens next.

California partially lost the case against AB5 brought by Uber and Postmates in March before a three-judge panel of the 9th Circuit. The state of California is the defendant.

That decision, known as Olson after the lead plaintiff in the case first filed in 2019, said app-based...

Minneapolis mayor vetoes minimum wage proposal for Uber, Lyft drivers

The mayor of Minneapolis has vetoed an ordinance approved last week by Minneapolis City Council to establish a minimum per-mile pay rate for Uber and Lyft drivers in the city.

Instead, Mayor Jacob Frey announced an agreement with Uber (NYSE: UBER) that will guarantee a pay rate to its drivers that will equate to the Minneapolis minimum wage, which, depending on company size, is either side of $15 an hour. The agreement on a minimum wage appears to only apply to Uber, as Lyft has not indicated it...

Minneapolis council OKs bill mandating minimum compensation for gig drivers

A bill that would mandate minimum pay levels for Uber and Lyft drivers in Minneapolis, including a per-mile rate that is not all that far less than what national averages show it takes to hire a truckload carrier, will head to the desk of the city’s mayor, where its fate so far is unknown.

In a 7-5 vote, with one abstention, the Minneapolis City Council Thursday voted to approve legislation that would require several benchmarks be met for Uber and Lyft drivers to be paid. 

Among them is a...

California Supreme Court to review rulings on constitutionality of Prop 22

The battle over the constitutionality of California’s Prop 22 lives on, with the state’s Supreme Court granting review of mixed lower and appellate court rulings on the issue of exempting gig workers from independent contractor law AB5.

The Supreme Court on Wednesday said it would hear the appeal of the case, which was brought by a group of gig worker defendants. A driver named Hector Castellanos is the lead plaintiff. The Service Employees International Union California State Council is also a...

California trucking eyes equal protection argument in AB5 litigation

Two key lawsuits regarding trucking, gig workers and California’s independent contractor law, AB5, are starting to converge.

The California Trucking Association (CTA) lawsuit that dates back to 2019, which resulted in an injunction that kept AB5 at bay in trucking for 2 1/2 years until the U.S. Supreme Court declined to review a lower court ruling against the injunction, faced a deadline Wednesday for filing additional briefs.

Those briefs were to be filed by the state of California and the...
