Nicole Richie Challenges Drug Test

Today’s a big day for Nicole Richie. The rumor is that the skinny mama-to-be had to decide by today if she would accept a plea deal with prosecutors over her wrong-way on the high (and we mean high!) way. Not that Nic was in court. The itty-bitty baby baker was headed to Canada to watch her sperm donor and future hubby Joel Madden perform.

But TMZ has the legal scoop that Nicole may reject the plea bargain and instead fight the charges based on the drug test.

The declaration, filed today by Shawn Chapman Holley, Nicole’s lawyer, states, “Dr. Terence McGee as a defense expert … will challenge the prosecutor’s scientific evidence and the conclusions reached by the drug recognition expert.”

So she thinks she got a false positive on the drug test. Any chance the same thing happened with the pregnancy stick?
