Saric, M.D.; Decision and Order On November 2, 2010, Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) Timothy D. Wing issued the attached recommended decision. Thereafter, Respondent filed exceptions to the decision. Having reviewed the record in its entirety including the ALJ’s recommended decision, I have decided to adopt the ALJ’s rulings, findings of fact, conclusions of law, and recommended Order. In his Exceptions, Respondent argues that ‘‘the ALJ’s Recommended Decision fails to take into account certain exceptions where a suspension or stay of revocation has been granted in circumstances similar to that of Respondent’s.’’ Exceptions at 1 (citing Stuart A. Bergman, M.D., 70 FR 33193 (2005)). Respondent notes that ‘‘[i]n VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:16 Mar 24, 2011 Jkt 223001 Bergman[,], the ALJ delayed issuing her ruling on the Government’s Motion for Summary Disposition for over two months to allow for a pending state board hearing.’’ Id. Respondent states that ‘‘he is currently receiving treatment in [an] approved rehabilitation program and will likely complete his treatment next month,’’ that ‘‘[h]e is in full compliance with the Florida Department of Health and the Florida Professionals Resource Network and will appear before the Florida Board of Medicine to have his license reinstated in early 2011.’’ Id. at 1–2. Respondent contends that a stay of this Final Order ‘‘will allow him time to complete his rehabilitation and have the state suspension of his medical license lifted’’ and that ‘‘such a stay * * * is within the Deputy Assistant Administrator’s authority and would not disserve the public interest.’’ Id. Respondent thus requests that the issuance of this Final Order be stayed for ninety (90) days 1 in order to allow him ‘‘time to have the temporary suspension of his Florida medical license lifted.’’ Id. However, more than ninety days have already passed since Respondent filed his Exceptions, and yet Respondent has submitted no evidence to this Office establishing that the Florida Board of Medicine has re-instated his medical license. Nor has Respondent even submitted evidence as to when he is scheduled to appear before the Florida Board. Moreover, in circumstances similar to those raised by Respondent, DEA has repeatedly denied requests to stay the issuance of a final order of revocation, noting that ‘‘[u]nder the Controlled Substances Act, ‘a practitioner must be currently authorized to handle controlled substances in ‘‘the jurisdiction in which [he] practices’’ in order to maintain [his] DEA registration.’ ’’ Newcare Home Health Servs., 72 FR 42126 (2007) (quoting Bourne Pharmacy, Inc., 72 FR 18273, 18274 (2007) (quoting 21 U.S.C. 802(21))). See also 21 U.S.C. 802(21) (‘‘[t]he term ‘practitioner’ means a physician * * * licensed, registered, or otherwise permitted, by * * * the jurisdiction in which he practices * * * to * * * dispense * * * a controlled substance in the course of professional practice’’); id. § 823(f) (‘‘The Attorney General shall register practitioners * * * if the applicant is authorized to 1 While Respondent requested that the Deputy Assistant Administrator stay the issuance of the Final Order, given that the Deputy Assistant Administrator has no authority to issue the Agency’s Final Order, I address the request as if it was directed to this Office. PO 00000 Frm 00098 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 16821 dispense * * * controlled substances under the laws of the State in which he practices.’’); Bourne Pharmacy, 72 FR at 18274 (revoking registration; ‘‘Under the CSA, it does not matter whether the suspension is for a fixed term or for a duration which has yet to be determined because it is continuing pending the outcome of a state proceeding. Rather, what matters—as DEA has repeatedly held—is whether Respondent is without authority under [state] law to dispense a controlled substance.’’). Thus, Respondent’s reliance on Bergman is misplaced.2 As I further explained in Newcare, ‘‘[i]t is not DEA’s policy to stay proceedings under section 304 while registrants litigate in other forums.’’ 72 FR at 42127 (citing Bourne Pharmacy, 72 FR at 18273; Oakland Medical Pharmacy, 71 FR 50100 (2006); Kennard Kobrin, M.D., 70 FR 33199 (2005)). This is so, because in addition to the CSA’s requirement that a practitioner hold state authority in order to be registered, whether Respondent’s state license will be re-instated is entirely speculative. Nor is there any evidence in the record as to when such action may occur. Therefore, I adopt the ALJ’s recommendation that Respondent’s registration be revoked. Order Pursuant to the authority vested in me by 21 U.S.C. 823(f) and 824(a), as well as 28 CFR 0.100(b) and 0.104, I order that DEA Certificate of Registration, BS5109889, issued to Gregory F. Saric, M.D., be, and it hereby is, revoked. I further order that any pending application of Gregory F. Saric, M.D., to renew or modify his registration, be, and it hereby is, denied. This Order is effective April 25, 2011. Dated: March 10, 2011. Michele M. Leonhart, Administrator. Larry P. Cote, Esq., for the Government. George F. Indest, III, Esq., for Respondent. Recommended Ruling, Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law, and Decision of the Administrative Law Judge Administrative Law Judge Timothy D. Wing. On September 9, 2010, the Deputy Assistant Administrator, DEA, issued an Order to Show Cause (OSC) of 2 While in Bergman, the ALJ stayed the proceeding until after the registrant’s state board hearing, the decision of the Agency, which revoked his registration, did not endorse this practice. Moreover, the decision expressly noted that ‘‘[d]enial or revocation is also appropriate when a state license has been suspended, but with the possibility of future reinstatement.’’ 70 FR at 33193 (collecting cases).
