DescriptionCOLUMBIA, S.C. -- The South Carolina Supreme Court has upheld the conviction of a man for selling outlawed kits to beat urine drug tests.

Kenneth Curtis asked the Supreme Court to decide that he had no intent to help people defraud drug tests when he sold kits containing his urine. He was arrested for those sales and sentenced to six months in 2001.

Curtis had argued there was no credible evidence that anyone bought his product to defraud a test for illegal drug use. Curtis said he was trying to help people protect their privacy.

The high court's opinion Monday said it was clear from materials tied to the operation that the kits had a purpose. The court said business cards in the kits carry bold print that states: "Pass Any Drug Test".
