Thank you for your inquiry.
A positive drug test does not preclude you from receiving workers' compensation benefits. However, if you were intoxicated at the time of injury it wiould be difficult on appeal.
I'd need to speak to you in a little more detail to determine the strengths of your case. Feel free to contact me if you'd like to discuss your case further.
