Court imputes negative inference after adversary refuses drug test

The firm filed an Emergency Order to Show Cause seeking temporary custody of the parties’ two young children and requesting the adversary submit to a drug test. The adversary consented to a urine test but refused a hair follicle test. The Court stated on the record that by not consenting to the hair follicle test, it will impute a negative inference that he would have tested positive for every existing drug.
