City cabbie hails court licence win
A CAPITAL cabbie's court victory against the city council has threatened to open the floodgates for taxi licences.
The number of black cabs on city streets could rocket after the local authority lost its legal battle to postpone a decision on Vince Boylan's application for a licence.
The council delayed his licence application, and dozens of others, while a report on demand for taxis was compiled.
But the process dragged on for too long, and Mr Boylan took the council to court. The sheriff in charge of the case has now told city chiefs they must hand a licence to M&V Taxis because of the time delay.
