High Court Judge to Hear Case Involving Dispute at United Taxi Company
This morning, a high court judge will hear a case involving a dispute within the United Taxi Company.
The company has been grappling with internal conflict for several months without finding a resolution.
A few months ago, an election was held, during which 49 out of 91 members of the UTC participated and voted for a new executive team made up of both experienced and new members.
However, due to a breakdown of trust between some members and the UTC executive, two individuals, Henley Daniel and Ian Joseph, are now both claiming to be the legitimately elected president.
More than half of the members signed a petition last year to remove the then-executive, whom they hold responsible for causing division among them and creating a hostile environment.
Daniel, the president of the former executive, has refused to accept the election results. Initially, the Cabinet was asked to intervene but later decided to take a hands-off approach.
Attorney Wendel Alexander is representing the newly elected executive. Alexander mentions that no defense was filed in response to the court judgment, leaving the attorney to apply for a judgment in the matter.
