Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission; Bureau of Investigation and Enforcement v. Alpha Omega Limousine Network; Docket No. C-2013-2384844

COMPLAINT

 The Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (Commission) is a duly constituted agency of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania empowered to regulate public utilities within the Commonwealth. The Commission has delegated its authority to initiate proceedings which are prosecutory in nature to the Bureau of Investigation and Enforcement. Pursuant to that delegated authority and Section 701 of the Public Utility Code, the Bureau of Investigation and Enforcement Prosecutory Staff hereby represents as follows:

 1. That Alpha Omega Limousine Network, Respondent, maintains its principal place of business at 2416 East County Line Road, Ardmore, PA 19003.

 2. That Respondent was issued a Certificate of Public Convenience by this Commission on March 18, 2003 at Application Docket No. A-00118864.

 3. That by Secretarial Letter issued on June 11, 2012 at Docket No. C-2011-2270697, Respondent was directed to pay a civil penalty of two hundred fifty dollars ($250.00). To date, Respondent has not submitted any payment to this Commission.

 4. That Respondent failed to pay fines totaling two hundred fifty dollars ($250.00) and violated 66 Pa.C.S. § 501(c) for failing to observe, obey and comply with a Secretarial Letter issued on June 11, 2012 at Docket No. C-2011-2270697.

 A Certificate holder has an obligation to comply with the Commission's rules and regulations. A Certificate of Public Convenience is neither a contract nor a property; it is a privilege. Where that privilege is violated, the Commission may, for due cause, exercise its power to revoke a carrier's privilege to operate. Paradise v. Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission, 132 A.2d 754, 184 Pa. Superior Court 8 (1957).

Wherefore, the Bureau of Investigation and Enforcement Prosecutory Staff hereby requests that the Commission issue an Order which revokes the Certificates of Public Convenience held by Respondent at A-00118864.

Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission; Bureau of Investigation and Enforcement v. Yannis Cab Co.; Docket No. C-2013-2382835

COMPLAINT

 The Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (Commission) is a duly constituted agency of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania empowered to regulate public utilities within the Commonwealth. The Commission has delegated its authority to initiate proceedings which are prosecutory in nature to the Bureau of Investigation and Enforcement. Pursuant to that delegated authority and Section 701 of the Public Utility Code, the Bureau of Investigation and Enforcement Prosecutory Staff hereby represents as follows:

 1. That Yannis Cab Co., Respondent, maintains its principal place of business at 1603 North Delaware Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19125.

 2. That Respondent was issued Certificates of Public Convenience by this Commission on November 3, 2004 at Application Docket No. A-00120932 F.3, on March 8, 2005 at A-00120932 F.4, and on March 28, 2005 at A-00120932 F.5.

 3. That by Secretarial Letter issued on April 5, 2011 at C-2010-2213368, Respondent was directed to pay a civil penalty of two hundred fifty dollars ($250.00). To date, Respondent has not submitted any payments to this Commission.

 4. That by Secretarial Letter issued on July 8, 2011 at C-2010-2135198, Respondent was directed to pay a civil penalty of two hundred fifty dollars ($250.00). To date, Respondent has not submitted any payments to this Commission.

 5. That by Secretarial Letter issued on May 24, 2012 at C-2011-2256026, Respondent was directed to pay a civil penalty of one thousand dollars ($1,000.00). To date, Respondent has not submitted any payments to this Commission.

 6. That Respondent failed to pay fines totaling one thousand five hundred dollars ($1,500.00) and violated 66 Pa.C.S. § 501(c) for failing to observe, obey and comply with Secretarial Letters issued on April 5, 2011 at C-2010-2213368, July 8, 2011 at C-2010-2135198, and May 24, 2012 at C-2011-2256026.

 A Certificate holder has an obligation to comply with the Commission's rules and regulations. A Certificate of Public Convenience is neither a contract nor a property; it is a privilege. Where that privilege is violated, the Commission may, for due cause, exercise its power to revoke a carrier's privilege to operate. Paradise v. Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission, 132 A.2d 754, 184 Pa. Superior Court 8 (1957).

Wherefore, the Bureau of Investigation and Enforcement Prosecutory Staff hereby requests that the Commission issue an Order which revokes the Certificates of Public Convenience held by Respondent at A-00120932 Fs. 3, 4 and 5.
