Lawyer: Brit Failing Drug-Testing Procedures, Missed 8 out of 14 Tests
Thursday November 8, 2007
![]() INFphoto.com; Denise Truscello/WireImage.com A lawyer for Kevin Federline alleged that Britney Spears has failed to follow drug-testing procedures, missing eight of 14 drug tests, at an emergency hearing in their ongoing custody battle at L.A. Superior Court Thursday. He alleged that Spears, 25 — who has been called to submit twice-weekly random drug and alcohol tests — has not been able to be reached for results within the hour, a court-ordered deadline. Kaplan told Court Commissioner Scott Gordon, "We have been in court on this exact issue at least three times." Spears' attorney Anne Kiley shot back, calling the tests "unconstitutional. "Since October 5 there have been 10 negative drug tests," she said, adding, "the idea that she needs to respond within the hour is meaningless. "Is the issue that Britney Spears needs to get up at 8:30 a.m. and answer the phone?" she went on. "She's a pop star with a No. 1 album. She is not up that early." [Spears' album was actually No. 2 on Billboard's Top 200.] Gordon fired back: "She needs to take responsibility. The issue is to see if she can follow a court order. "Since we started this, there have been lost phones, changed numbers, voicemails being left on someone else's voice mail.... "Maybe we should set up a fixed appointment for her to be tested," he said. "The point is we cannot continue to do these weekly ex-parte motions." A source tells Spears and Federline were not present. UPDATE: Kaplan and Kiley have been oredered to come up with a new drug testing plan and present it to Gordon at a hearing Tuesday. Gordon also ruled that Spears must provide a single, working telephone number to be called in for drug testing.
