There are many situations in which someone may be legally required to undergo alcohol and drug testing, such as:
-
Child Custody Cases - Legal battles involving child custody may include issues of drug or alcohol use or abuse among one or both former spouses, which are then considered in decisions for the best interest of the child.
-
DUI or DWI Arrests - Arrests or convictions for DUI or DWI often require court-ordered drug and alcohol testing.
-
Probation Testing - Mandated testing as a condition of probation is standard with federal probation, county probation, and drug courts across Michigan.
Court-ordered drug tests will contain detailed instructions specifying the type of test to be administered and the drugs that should be screened for. If sample collection needs to be witnessed to prevent potential tampering or substitution, those specifications will be stated in the court order.
Child Custody Drug and Alcohol Testing
Unfortunately, many of us go through tough life situations such as divorce or break-ups where children are involved. If the living environment also involves illicit drug use, serious decisions must be made to ensure a child’s safety.
Legal battles involving child custody may include issues of drug or alcohol use in one or both former spouses. To protect the children, an ongoing program of random drug testing is agreed upon between the parties or court-ordered. The program may involve testing of either spouse during visitation or custody.
A parent can obtain a court order requiring the other party to undergo child custody drug and alcohol testing on a random or periodic basis. This could entail testing just before or after a period of sole custody. You can register for urine testing or sign up for a random testing program. Contact us at 248-618-0071.
An individual’s drug use, whether occasional or frequent, can endanger a child significantly. Therefore, any allegations of illicit drug and/or alcohol misuse during child custody cases are treated very seriously. A court may refuse custody or require supervised visitations for an individual accused of substance abuse.
For parents concerned about their former spouse or partner's illicit drug or alcohol abuse, they have the right to request drug and/or alcohol testing. The most frequently used tests in child custody cases are the 5-panel drug test, 10-panel drug test, and the 12-panel drug test. Michigan Court Services uses SAMHSA-certified laboratories to ensure your results are accurate and reliable.
Probation Drug Testing
Individuals who have encountered legal issues are often mandated by courts to undergo random drug and alcohol testing for probation. Court-ordered testing may be conducted randomly or on a scheduled basis.
Courts frequently mandate a series of drug tests as a condition of pre-trial services. Probation drug testing varies based on the individual’s offense and the court’s decision.
Michigan Court Services offers accurate and reliable results for drug and alcohol testing that meet pre-trial or probation requirements. We provide an easy system for probation officers to access clients' test results via our secure online portal. Results can also be faxed to a probation officer, the court, or an attorney.
The most common court-ordered tests include the 5-panel, 10-panel, urine alcohol, and EtG alcohol screenings. These tests detect alcohol and commonly abused street and prescription drugs.
Michigan Court Services utilizes the Random Color Code System for scheduling random drug testing. This method is widely used by probation courts to determine who, when, and how often someone should complete a drug and/or alcohol test. An individual on probation will be assigned a specific color and required to call into the probation courts every day. A recorded message will inform individuals of which color(s) and/or numbers must report to a collection site for a random drug and/or alcohol test. Failure to report for a test will result in a violation of probation terms.
