Blood Drug Testing

What are the legal consequences for a failed drug test?

What are the legal consequences for failing a marijuana drug test in Texas? I'm not talking about possession just a failed drug test. What if a school is testing you? Does it go on our perminant record? Can they expell us? Thanks for your answers guys!

1. It depends on who is testing you and why. If a school is testing you as part of a qualifier for extracurricular activities as permitted in the Earls v Tecumseh case, then you won't be arrested or anything, You just won't be able to participate. If it's for a job, you won't go to jail. Nor will you get the job. If it's drug testing as part of a probation or parole agreement, you can bet there will be legal consequences for failing the test.
2. Unless you are on probation, then nothing. If you are trying to get a job, then you probably won't get hired. Not sure what you mean by 'school'. Public schools don't drug test, and private institutions usually don't either (unless you are trying to get a job there - if so, see above). I smoked out right before going to my job interview - they drug tested me, but I didn't have to take it for two weeks, so i was able to get cleaned up (lots of water and cranberry juice). I've been here over 4 years now.
3. Depends... If its just the school then they kick you off the team or w/e your geting tested for.Maybe call your parents? But no legal action will be taken.
