In a recent NBC10 segment covering SEPTA’s latest fare hikes and the potential class-action lawsuit challenging them, civil litigation attorney Nikole Dagessian provided key legal perspective. While not directly involved in the case, Nikole explained that riders may indeed have a chance at relief.
She noted that the outcome will ultimately depend on the judge’s evaluation of the facts, including whether SEPTA has sufficient funds to operate without relying on the fare increase. Her insight underscores how courts weigh both the financial realities of public agencies and the legal requirements for implementing permanent changes such as fare hikes.
