Z&R Cab, LLC v. Phila. Parking Auth., PICS Case No. 17-1067 (C.P. Philadelphia July 10, 2017) McInerney, J. (11 pages).

After a law pertaining to a fee structure imposed on the taxicab industry was declared unconstitutional, the city parking authority was required to give retroactive notices to class members and provide the opportunity for a hearing. Class members were not entitled to completely avoid the fees for the period during which the unconstitutional law was in effect.
