Download as PDF 4973 mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 20 / Thursday, January 30, 2014 / Notices Tapia, M.D., 52 FR 30458, 30459 (1987) (considering evidence that a physician did not perform physical exams and issued medically unnecessary prescriptions under factor two); Thomas Parker Elliott, D.O., 52 FR 36312, 36313 (1987) (adopting ALJ’s conclusion that physician’s ‘‘experience in the handling [of] controlled substances clearly warrants finding that his continued registration is inconsistent with the public interest,’’ based on the physician’s having ‘‘prescribed enormous quantities of highly addictive drugs to [ten] individuals’’ without adequate medical justification). Under agency precedent, ‘‘where a registrant [or applicant] has committed acts inconsistent with the public interest, [he] must accept responsibility for his . . . actions and demonstrate that he . . . will not engage in future misconduct.’’ Jayam Krishna-Iyer, 74 FR 459, 463 (2009); see also Medicine Shoppe-Jonesborough, 73 FR 364, 387 (2008). Here, because Applicant waived his right to a hearing (as well as his right to submit a written statement in lieu of a hearing), GX 4, at 2, the only evidence in the record to refute the conclusion that his continued registration is ‘‘inconsistent with the public interest’’ is that he apparently completed the courses required by the Florida Board of Medicine as evidenced by the fact that his medical license remains current and active. There is, however, no evidence that Applicant acknowledges his misconduct, which is egregious, and accepts responsibility for it. Indeed, the Expert’s report identifies dozens of patients (beyond the seven specifically discussed above) to whom Applicant diverted controlled substances. Accordingly, Applicant’s application will be denied.22 See Krishna-Iyer, 74 FR 464 (‘‘[E]ven where the Agency’s proof establishes that a practitioner has committed only a few acts of diversion, this Agency will not grant [an application for] registration unless he accepts responsibility for his misconduct.’’); see also MacKay v. DEA, 664 F.3d 808, 822 (10th Cir. 2011) (sustaining agency order revoking practitioner’s registration based on proof physician knowingly diverted drugs to two patients). 22 As found above, because Applicant did not submit his renewal application at least 45 days before the expiration of his registration, and had been served previously with the Order to Show Cause, pursuant to 21 CFR 1301.36(i), his registration expired on August 25, 2013. Had his registration not expired per the Agency’s rule, I would have revoked it. VerDate Mar<15>2010 18:24 Jan 29, 2014 Jkt 232001 Order Pursuant to the authority vested in me by 21 U.S.C. 823(f), as well as 28 CFR 0.100(b) and 0.104, I order that the pending application of Ralph J. Chambers, M.D., for a DEA Certificate of Registration be, and it hereby is, denied. This Order is effective immediately.
