RHONY alum Jules Wainstein's ex husband Michael (seen above in 2010) is asking a civil court to drug test her following her battery arrest late February
He wants the businesswoman to submit hair follicles to be tested, as a hair follicle test can detect drug use over a much longer period of time than a traditional urine test.
In the civil proceedings, Michael claimed that their son saw Jules pop a pill before her February outburst, where she was arrested for allegedly punching him in the face during a heated custody exchange.
Mr. Wainstein also claims that his former wife previously assaulted him during their time in New York. He accused her of returning to their home visibly high on cocaine and then attacking him after being confronted about her intoxicated state.
He backed up his statements by saying he's aware of her past problems with pills, notably the ADHD medication Adderall. If she test positive for substances, Michael is requesting Jules be ordered into a treatment program.

Michael's request is linked to the couple's ongoing New York divorce case while Jules' battery arrest and the resulting restraining order are both matters for Florida courts.
A court hearing is scheduled later this month.
Jules found herself in legal trouble after she was reported to have violently lashed out at her ex while exchanging daughter Rio, nine, and son Jagger, 11 in Boca Raton, Florida last month.
During the altercation, which took place in a parking lot, Jules licked Michael's car window before moving to the back of the car and hitting the vehicle with a baseball bat, according to a source that spoke to Page Six.

She then allegedly punched Michael in the face while their two children looked on from inside the car.
Michael filmed the incident on his phone and told cops that Jules hit and scratched his face, according to TMZ.
The businessman claims he started filming his ex because of a previous argument about child support which left him feeling threatened.
Wainstein's arraignment is now scheduled for March 16.
Michael's lawyer Morghan Richardson said in a statement: 'This is a serious situation reflecting Ms. Wainstein’s increasingly reckless behavior that unfortunately took place in front of the kids,'

She has been living in Florida in recent months, telling Bravo in October 2019: 'I'm temporarily living in Boca [in Florida] at my parents, which actually happened to be a nice thing because unfortunately my father just recently passed away.
'So we got to spend the last year with him, which we wouldn't have spent as much time if we were living in New York. So we'll be there until things settle, and then hopefully we'll move back soon.'
