Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 154 / Friday, August 11, 2017 / Notices
in the . . . dispensing of controlled
substances.’’ With respect to a
practitioner, the DEA has also long held
that the possession of authority to
dispense controlled substances under
the laws of the State in which a
practitioner engages in professional
practice is a fundamental condition for
obtaining and maintaining a
practitioner’s registration. See, e.g.,
James L. Hooper, 76 FR 71,371 (2011),
pet. for rev. denied, 481 Fed. Appx. 826
(4th Cir. 2012); Frederick Marsh
Blanton, 43 FR 27,616 (1978).
This rule derives from the text of two
provisions of the CSA. First, Congress
defined the term ‘‘ ‘practitioner’ [to]
mean[ ] a . . . physician, dentist, . . .
or other person licensed, registered, or
otherwise permitted, by . . . the
jurisdiction in which he practices . . .,
to distribute, dispense, [or] administer
. . . a controlled substance in the
course of professional practice . . . .’’
21 U.S.C. 802(21). Second, in setting the
requirements for obtaining a
practitioner’s registration, Congress
directed that ‘‘[t]he Attorney General
shall register practitioners . . . if the
applicant is authorized to dispense . . .
controlled substances under the laws of
the State in which he practices.’’ 21
U.S.C. 823(f). Because Congress has
clearly mandated that a practitioner
possess state authority in order to be
deemed a practitioner under the CSA,
the DEA has held repeatedly that
revocation of a practitioner’s registration
is the appropriate sanction whenever he
is no longer authorized to dispense
controlled substances under the laws of
the State in which he practices. See,
e.g., Hooper, 76 FR at 71,371–72; Sheran
Arden Yeates, 71 FR 39,130, 39,131
(2006); Dominick A. Ricci, 58 FR 51,104,
51,105 (1993); Bobby Watts, 53 FR
11,919, 11,920 (1988); Blanton, 43 FR at
27,616.
Under California law, section 1626 of
the Business and Professions Code
provides that ‘‘[i]t is unlawful for any
person to engage in the practice of
dentistry in the state . . . unless the
person has a valid, unexpired license or
special permit from the Board.’’ Cal.
Bus. & Prof. Code § 1626 (2017).3
Further, section 11210 of the California
Health and Safety Code sets out who
may lawfully prescribe controlled
substances in California other than for
the treatment of addicts. California
licensed dentists are among those lawful
3 Dentistry and the practice of dentistry are
addressed in Cal. Bus & Prof. Code § 1625 which
states, among other things, that dentistry is the
diagnosis or treatment of diseases and may include
the use of ‘‘drugs.’’

prescribers.4 See Cal. Bus. & Prof. Code
§ 11024 (2017).
In this case, pursuant to the DBC
Stipulated Surrender of License and
Order, Registrant has lost all rights and
privileges as a dentist in California.
Supra. Consequently, under California
law, Registrant is not currently
authorized to handle controlled
substances in that State. Supra. I,
therefore, conclude that the record
supports the revocation of Registrant’s
registration because he does not possess
authority to dispense controlled
substances under the laws of California,
the State in which he is registered. 21
U.S.C. 824(a)(3). Thus, I find that
Registrant is not entitled to maintain his
DEA registration. Blanton, supra.
Accordingly, I will order that his
registration be revoked and that any
pending application for the renewal or
modification of his registration be
denied. Id.
Order
Pursuant to the authority vested in me
by 21 U.S.C. 824(a), as well as 28 CFR
0.100(b), I order that DEA Certificate of
Registration AG1976971 issued to Luis
C B Gomez, D.D.S., be, and it hereby is,
revoked. I further order that any
pending application of Luis C B Gomez,
D.D.S., to renew or modify this
registration, as well as any other
pending application by him for
registration in the State of California, be,
and it hereby is, denied. This order is
effective September 11, 2017.
Dated: August 2, 2017.

Acting Administrator.
