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.

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.

Court: New Jersey must reconsider windmill plan
A company that wants to build a windmill power project off the coast of Atlantic City has won a victory in court.
A New Jersey appeals ruled in favor of Fishermen's Energy in a dispute over the company's plan.
The state Board of Public Utilities had denied approval for the project in April. The board ruled that a Chinese company that would own 70 percent of the project did not demonstrate financial integrity and hadn't shown it could get the necessary federal subsidies.
Fisherman's Energy appealed the rejection, and Monday's ruling will require the board to reconsider the project.
The company said in a statement Monday that the appeals court decision requires that the board factor into its reconsideration the company's executing of an agreement for a $47 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy.
The company also said that the board must acknowledge the company's proposed price of $199 per megawatt hour instead of the $263 per megawatt hour it cited in its rejection of the project.
