Uber's terms and conditions were not presented clearly enough, according to the ruling. Mike Blake/Reuters Massachusetts' highest court on Monday reversed a decision allowing Uber to settle a discrimination lawsuit in arbitration. The case was brought by Christopher Kauders, a blind man who was denied service by three Uber drivers because of his guide dog.
