On Monday, a California Superior Court judge ruled that Uber and Lyft should classify drivers as employees, not temporary contractors. Both companies plan to appeal, and on Wednesday, Uber’s CEO said that if this ruling is upheld, the company would have to temporarily stop operating in California.

Axios Re:Cap producer Naomi Shavin discusses the ruling and what comes next with Mike Isaac of the New York Times and author of “Super Pumped: The Battle for Uber.”
