  The fight over freight broker transparency has hit the front lines again, this time in the form of a lawsuit between Total Quality Logistics and Pink Cheetah Express LLC. Pink Cheetah claims that TQL hasn't followed the broker transparency rule in place.

The article from Freightwaves discusses a legal battle between freight brokers and carriers over transparency in the trucking industry, specifically focusing on the practice of "double brokering." The case, which has reached the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit, involves a carrier, TQL, and a broker, Loadsmart, where the carrier alleges that the broker did not disclose the identity of the shipper, leading to issues with payment and load management. The core of the dispute revolves around the interpretation of the Federal Aviation Administration Authorization Act (FAAAA) and whether state laws requiring broker transparency are preempted by federal regulations. The court's decision could set a precedent for how much information brokers must disclose to carriers, potentially affecting the entire logistics industry's operational practices. The article highlights the ongoing tension between the need for efficiency in logistics and the rights of carriers to know with whom they are dealing.
