"
Uber’s licence expired on 30 September, but Uber’s cars will remain available in London until the legal process is exhausted – potentially a year or more. A first hearing is likely to take place on 11 December, according to a judicial office spokesman.

No news, and by all accounts that's going to take a long time yet. It also depends on how talks between the company's head honcho and the Mayor have gone. I don't know what will happen if they've gone well, i.e. whether Uber in that case would not appeal but change their ways and simply apply for a new licence, if that's possible, but if they've gone badly I imagine they would try to draw out legal proceedings for as long as they can, so if the deadline to appeal hasn't passed yet they would probably try to submit an appeal as close to the deadline as possible, etc. I say all this as a complete legal ignoramus.
