A: More information is needed to fully answer your question or assess your situation. You do not have to do a drug test just because she asks and I understand not wanting to bow to her demands over and over again. A motion to appoint a PRE is not an order, though if there is a PRE appointed he or she can certainly weigh on on what testing, if any, they want either of you to do. You should consult with a family law attorney.
