Add BT as a preferred source
A NEW York state judge issued a temporary halt to a new city law scheduled to go into effect next week, which requires minimum wage payments for app-based food delivery workers.
New York State Supreme Court Justice Nicholas Moyne on Friday (Jul 7) granted the temporary stay after lawyers for Uber, DoorDash, Grubhub Holdings and Relay Delivery argued they could be irreparably harmed by the law, set to go into effect Jul 12.
Moyne ruled the new law wouldn’t go into effect until lawyers for New York City and the app-delivery firms file formal papers with their arguments. The judge scheduled another hearing for Jul 31. BLOOMBERG
