Doc.

1. That Wanna Cab, Inc., Respondent maintains a principal place of business at 306 East Baltimore Pike, Suite A, Media, PA 19063.
2. That Respondent was issued a Certificate of Public Convenience by this Commission on December 3, 1987, at A-00107461.
3. That Respondent was advised by letter dated May 10, 2005, that its medallion authority was being transferred to the Philadelphia Parking Authority.

4. That on January 23, 2009, respondent performed a household goods move for Gale Jackson from 237 Hutton Road, Pittsburgh, PA to 7856 Mark Drive, Verona, PA for compensation. The carrier was warned previously by the Pittsburgh District Office on March 24, 2008. The warning advised the carrier to 'cease and desist' from further advertisement and transportation of property/household goods within Pennsylvania and of the penalties associated with future violations.
5. That respondent, in performing the acts described in Paragraphs 3 and 4 of this Complaint, violated the Public Utility Code, 66 Pa.C.S § 1101, in that Respondent held out to transport and transported household goods in use for compensation between points in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania while not then holding a Certificate of Public Convenience issued by this Commission. The Bureau of Transportation and Safety Motor Carrier Services and Enforcement's Prosecutory staff's proposed civil penalty for each violation is $1,000.00 for a total of $2,000.00. Future violations may result in possible criminal prosecution with penalties up to $10,000.00 and one year in prison.
Wherefore, the Bureau of Transportation and Safety Prosecutory Staff hereby requests that the Commission fine Neighborhood Movers of Pittsburgh the sum of two thousand dollars ($2,000.00) for the illegal activity described in this complaint and order such other remedy as the Commission may deem to be appropriate.
