Are you being charged with a crime? Or are you upset and want to vent?:confused:

I am not trying to be rude...Just trying for clarification. :)

Given that OP posted in the Job Discrimination and Harassment forum, I'd guess he's not asking about a criminal charge.

His permit was revoked (for whatever reason).

I want to know if the airport can take my permit away just because people have lied and complain about me .. because they want me out for financial gain . I just paid 400$ for my permit . I did nothing wrong they didnt even talk to me . said "your out" They took it away for NO reason.

Have you consulted with an attorney?

And I am sorry for misreading your 1st posting.

This is really too complex to give you much advice or hope on an internet forum. On its face, it appears there might be an argument the permit was wrongfully repealed. Then again, I suspect there are rules you must comply with to retain a permit as well that you may have breached. You need to speak with a lawyer who can review the situation in closer detail and advise you.

I suggest you contact the airport exec assistant, to escalate your situation. If you are not satisfied by the outcome, contact the airport authority attorneys office. Here is the contact info. Please remember, immediately going into a diatribe, complaining about your treatment, is not the goal. Having your license reinstated is. I suggest you start with sentences like

"Hi, I am XXXXXX, I have a really big problem and it is putting me out of business. Will you please attempt to help me?"

Do not try and cast blame, simply explain in a non judgmental way what happened, express your innocence of some misinterpretation and request help to fix the situation.

If this is just about stopping the lies, then you are really wasting your time. If this is about getting your permit back then I suggest you proceed with retaining an attorney.
