DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
Drug Enforcement Administration
Wheatland Pharmacy; Decision and
Order
On July 17, 2012, the Deputy
Assistant Administrator, Office of
Diversion Control, Drug Enforcement
Administration, issued an Order to
Show Cause to Wheatland Pharmacy
(Applicant), of Dallas, Texas. The Show
Cause Order proposed the denial of
Applicant’s pending application for a
DEA Certificate of Registration as a
retail pharmacy on the ground that its
registration ‘‘would be inconsistent with
PO 00000
Frm 00080
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

the public interest,’’ as defined in 21
U.S.C. 823(f). GX 7, at 1.
The Show Cause Order alleged that on
September 29, 2010, the Administrator
issued an Order to Show Cause and
Immediate Suspension of Registration to
Applicant, and that, on January 18,
2011, Applicant voluntarily surrendered
its previous registration. Id. at 1–2.
Specifically, the Show Cause Order
alleged that Lynn Michelle Clark,
Applicant’s owner/pharmacist,
‘‘unlawfully filled numerous fraudulent
controlled substance prescriptions for
individuals known to divert these
drugs,’’ and that she ‘‘knew or should
have known that these prescriptions
were fraudulent.’’ Id. at 1. The Show
Cause Order further alleged that ‘‘Ms.
Clark failed to fulfill her responsibility
to dispense controlled substances only
pursuant to a prescription issued for a
legitimate medical purpose in the usual
course of professional practice’’ and that
she ‘‘also violated federal law by
delivering prescriptions for controlled
substances to persons who were not the
ultimate users of the controlled
substances.’’ Id. at 1–2 (citing 21 U.S.C.
829, 841(a)(1), 842(a) and 802(10) &
(27)). Finally, the Order alleged that on
July 7, 2011, Ms. Clark submitted an
application for a new registration on
Applicant’s behalf.1 Id. at 1.
Thereafter, Applicant apparently
requested a hearing on the allegations
and the matter was placed on the docket
of the Office of Administrative Law
Judges. However, on October 4, 2012,
Applicant moved for a stay of the
proceeding pending action on its
request to withdraw its application, and
on October 5, 2012, the ALJ granted the
motion. GX 14, at 1.
On November 7, 2012, the Deputy
Assistant Administrator, Office of
Diversion Control, denied Applicant’s
request to withdraw. GX 13, at 1.
Thereafter, on November 26, 2012,
Applicant filed with the ALJ a letter
waiving its right to a hearing, citing 21
CFR 1301.43(e). GX 13, at 3. The next
day, the ALJ found that Applicant had
waived its right to a hearing; the ALJ
thus lifted the stay of the proceeding
and ordered that the proceeding be
terminated. GX 14.
On June 12, 2013, the Government
filed a Request for Final Agency Action
and the Investigative Record with this
Office. Req. for Final Agency Action, at
14. Therein, the Government requests
that I deny Applicant’s pending
1 The Show Cause Order also notified Applicant
of its right to request a hearing on the allegations
or to submit a written statement in lieu of a hearing,
the procedure for electing either option, and the
consequences for failing to do so. See 21 CFR
1301.43.
