Uber Battles to Keep London License in Court Appeal

|Updated:

LONDON —Uber went to court on Monday, June 25, to overturn a decision stripping it of its license in London after being ruled unfit to run a taxi service in its most important European market.

Regulator Transport for London (TfL) shocked the Silicon Valley firm last September by refusing to renew its license, citing failings in its approach to reporting serious criminal offences and to background checks on drivers.
