Asked on Dec 29th, 2013 on Family Law - California
More details to this question:
I am a client in Family Preservation Court in RIverside County. I was not court ordered to enroll, I did it voluntarily. I have been in compliance with the program for 6 months. I took an on site drug test the other day and it showed as a possibly positive. The lab has not returned confirmation yet. If CPS get a referral from the drug program about the test, will the remove my children from my home?

Don't call me but call a local lawyer who knows CA law. In my state, they could remove not solely on the drug test alone, but the drug test and other factors like continued use or history of drugs, alcohol, non-compliance with other conditions, etc.
