The U.S. Supreme Court on Oct. 15 denied Uber Technologies and its subsidiary Postmates in their bid to press forward with their constitutional challenge to California’s gig worker law. The decision was made just over one week after the Supreme Court ruled against Uber in another labor case out of California.
In their denial on Tuesday, Supreme Court justices opted to uphold a ruling by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit dismissing the ride-sharing services’ lawsuit on the constitutionality of Assembly Bill 5 (AB 5), which went into effect in 2020.
