Re: drug test on trial date?

The very fact that you asked the question makes me nervous. Whatever it is you're taking - stop it - and prove to the Judge you're clean.

The answer to your question is probably not at trial unless, if you're found guilty, you ask to be sentenced right then and there. At sentencing on drug charges, judges like to test to see if you're telling the truth about whether you've been staying clean or not.

Act accordingly and good luck.
