Need urgent advice

[Toweliee]

hey i was recently assaulted on the weekend and have decided to press charges. It happened for no apparent reason and I was struck about 20 times to the head. The guy never suspected us of being blazed at the time but he found out later that me and the 2 friends I was with are heavy smokers. I have been told by multiple ppl that he was going to tell the cops that we were high at the time. I was not blazed then but am extremely worried about him bringing this up in court. Can the court order to have us tested? and if we fail the test how will it effect the case? It will more than likely take months to go to court but I don't really want to quit, does anyone know what I should do?

1)You being high does not give another individual the right to assault you.

2)Court ordered drug test don't happen because of accusations mad by the person you accused of assault.

3)There is something missing from your story, why did he hit you?
Are you a minor? Was this a person with some type of authority?

Trust nothing I say, ask a legal professional, they usually don't come cheap.

no i am not a minor and the individual who assaulted me had been drinking heavily that night and he was by himself at the time when shit hit the fan.

Its next to impossible for them to force you to get a UA for anything of such a small nature like that.

Yeah, I agree with the above posts... If it's a matter of assault, then that's the most prominent issue. It's actually not illegal to be high, just illegal for possession, growing, distributing, etc. Just be 100% honest, and I hope you're okay!

I was smoking once, and my sister's friend was drunk as shit, he got mad at her, and ended up punching out my 3 car windows! We went to court over that, as he refused to pay the damages, and I wasn't going to put an insurance claim on it because it would have increased my premium. Long story short, told the judge exactly what had happened, and I got the money to fix my windows, and a restraining order against the guy. He was nuts!

the only reason I am concerned is if he says we were too baked or whatever to remember then it could effect if are stories are reliable or not

[stinkybudz]
