Question Presented (AI Summary)

Whether the termination of non-white immigrant-owned small cab companies by the CAE airport based on alleged lack of access to Fort Jackson base, while allowing white-American owned cab companies to operate without such access, violates the equal protection clause of the 14th amendment

Question Presented (OCR Extract)

QUESTIONS PRESENTED FOR REVIEW ; The questions are presented to be review based on the violation of the 14" amendment under equal protection. The CAE airport has terminated non-white immigrant owned small cab companies by stating that “they do not have access to Fort Jackson base” while Airport continues to allow White-American Owned cab BO company drivers to work at Airport without having Fort Jackson base access. During discovery, Airport has shown to courts they did not/do not have Fort id Jackson Base access information of airport drivers who worked for WhiteAmerican owned companies. Magistrate judge denied motions to collect evidence based on Fort Jackson base access even though non-white immigrant owned cab companies have been terminated from Airport based on the Fort Jackson base access. The plaintiff believes the judgment by the District court and appeal court may be erroneous and misapplies the plaintiffs rights under the equal protection of the 14" amendment.
