Federal Judge Strikes Down Kentucky Anti-Competitive Moving Company Law

Gave existing companies ability to veto newcomers

|

A federal judge on Monday struck down part of a state law that essentially gave existing moving companies a veto over new competition.

The ruling was a victory for Raleigh Bruner, who successfully challenged the constitutionality of the law that was used in an attempt to keep his Wildcat Moving LLC from operating in the Lexington area.

"I could not be happier with the ruling. I think justice has been served," Bruner said.
