Jury Orders Uber to Pay $8.5 Million
A jury ordered Uber to pay $8.5 million to a woman. An Uber driver raped her in 2023.
Uber faces about 3,000 other sexual assault cases nationwide. This verdict sets a pattern for those other cases. The ruling helps establish how similar lawsuits will work.
Klear Note — Uber drivers are independent contractors, not employees. This affects how Uber is legally responsible for driver actions. The verdict may influence how thousands of similar cases are decided.
