Timm v. Reitz

This case challenges a rule of the Colorado Division of Racing Events that requires kennel workers in the Greyhound racing industry to furnish samples of their urine whenever state officials decide they want to perform a test for drugs, with no requirement of reasonable suspicion or probable cause. The trial court upheld the regulation, and the ACLU appealed. The Court of Appeals agreed with the ACLU's position that Colorado had failed to justify the random drug testing. Timm v. Reitz, 39 P.2d 1252 (Colo. Ct. App. 2001). Colorado subsequently rescinded the challenged regulation in 2002.
