Uber Technologies Inc., maker of the ride-hailing application that’s being challenged by taxi drivers around the globe, won a bid to halt a municipal agency’s decision to ban the service in the German city of Hamburg.
An administrative court ruled today that the wrong city agency issued the ban and Hamburg can’t enforce the restriction while it reviews a challenge filed by the company, court spokesman Andreas Lambiris said by phone. Another agency at the city has jurisdiction over the matter, he said.
