A Kentucky state law that requires new moving companies to prove to government bureaucrats that there is a "need" for their services before they can obtain a license has been blocked by a federal judge.
On Thursday, U.S. District Court Judge Danny Reeves ordered the state of Kentucky to halt enforcement of its so-called "competitor's veto" law for moving companies. The law gives existing licensed companies the ability to block new companies from getting licenses to operate.
The state of Kentucky was seeking to prosecute Raleigh Bruner, owner of Wildcat Moving, in a state court for violating that law while Bruner is suing the state in federal court in an attempt to get the law overturned on constitutional grounds.
