NEW YORK (AP) — Two days into the city’s experiment with taxi-summoning apps, e-hailing stalled Wednesday when a judge put the project on hold.

The apps, challenged by car service owners, are now back in limbo for at least a few weeks. State Supreme Court Appellate Division Justice Helen Freedman ordered the e-hailing programs to stop until a panel of judges weighs the case and decides, expected later this month.
