Mamdani admin escalates war on delivery apps with latest lawsuit

The Mamdani administration filed a lawsuit against Motoclick as part of a broader city crackdown on apps.
The suit claims Motoclick charged drivers for canceled orders and deducted refunded amounts from pay.
City officials say the case targets predatory app practices and protects delivery workers in New York.
Sam Levine, the city’s new commissioner, framed the case as holding large delivery firms accountable.
Motoclick did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The lawsuit follows earlier allegations that DoorDash and Uber Eats blocked workers from earning more than $550 million in tips.
The action is part of Mamdani’s promise to crack down on ‘predatory’ apps in New York.
The filing was announced during a news conference in New York City.
The city’s Department of Consumer and Worker Protection leads the case against Motoclick.
Court action signals heightened scrutiny of app-based work in New York’s gig economy.
