Perez, M.D.; Decision and Order On September 28, 2018, the Assistant Administrator, Diversion Control Division, Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), issued an Order to Show Cause to Robert T. Perez, M.D. (Registrant), of Santa Ana, California. The Show Cause Order proposed the revocation of Registrant’s DEA Certificate of Registration No. BP4317740 on the ground that he does ‘‘not have authority to handle controlled substances in the State of California, the [S]tate in which [he] is registered with the DEA.’’ Appendix (App.) 1 (Order to Show Cause) to Government’s Request VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:05 Feb 08, 2019 Jkt 247001 for Final Agency Action (RFAA), at 1 (citing 21 U.S.C. 823(f), 824(a)(3)). With respect to the Agency’s jurisdiction, the Show Cause Order alleged that Registrant is the holder of Certificate of Registration No. BP4317740, pursuant to which he is authorized to dispense controlled substances as a practitioner in schedules II through V, at the registered address of 1420 E. Edinger Ave., Suite 123, Santa Ana, California. Id. The Order also alleged that this registration does not expire until March 31, 2019. Id. Regarding the substantive grounds for the proceeding, the Show Cause Order alleged that on or about August 27, 2018, the Medical Board of California (MBC) issued ‘‘an Order On Noticed Petition For Order of Interim Suspension’’ (hereinafter ‘‘Interim Order’’) that ‘‘suspended’’ Registrant’s ‘‘authority to prescribe and administer controlled substances in the State of California, the [S]tate in which [he] is registered with the DEA.’’ Id. at 2. The Show Cause Order more specifically alleged that the Interim Order stated that Registrant ‘‘shall not ‘[p]ossess, order, purchase, receive, prescribe, furnish, administer, or otherwise distribute controlled substances or dangerous drugs as defined by federal or state law.’’ Id. As a result, the Show Cause Order alleged that ‘‘DEA must revoke [his] registration . . . based upon [his] lack of authority to handle controlled substances in the State of California.’’ Id. (citing 21 U.S.C. 824(a)(3)). Id. The Show Cause Order notified Registrant of (1) his right to request a hearing on the allegations or to submit a written statement in lieu of a hearing, (2) the procedure for electing either option, and (3) the consequence for failing to elect either option. Id. at 2–3. (citing 21 CFR 1301.43). The Order also notified Registrant of his right to submit a corrective action plan. Id. at 3–4 (citing 21 U.S.C. 824(c)(2)(C)). With respect to service, a Diversion Investigator (DI) with DEA’s Los Angeles Field Division executed a Declaration on January 8, 2019 stating that she ‘‘learned that [Registrant] was incarcerated at Santa Ana Jail located in Santa Ana, CA.’’ App. 10 (Declaration of DI) to RFAA, at 1. As a result, the DI stated that on October 16, 2018, she ‘‘personally served a copy of the [Show Cause Order] on [Registrant] at the prison.’’ Id. The Declaration also attached DEA Form 12 Receipt for Cash or Other Items bearing ‘‘Registrant’s signature confirming his receipt’’ of the Show Cause Order on October 16, 2018. Id. at 2; Attachment A to App. 10, at 1. PO 00000 Frm 00111 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 3247 On January 17, 2019, the Government forwarded its Request for Final Agency Action and evidentiary record to my Office. In its Request, the Government represents that more than 30 days have passed since Registrant had been served and that ‘‘DEA has not received a request for hearing or any other reply from him.’’ RFAA, at 5. Based on the Government’s representation and the record, I find that more than 30 days have passed since the Order to Show Cause was served on the Registrant, and he has neither requested a hearing nor submitted a written statement in lieu of a hearing. See 21 CFR 1301.43(d). Accordingly, I find that Registrant has waived his right to a hearing or to submit a written statement and issue this Decision and Order based on relevant evidence submitted by the Government. See id. I make the following findings. Findings of Fact Registrant is the holder of DEA Certificate of Registration No. BP4317740, pursuant to which he is authorized to dispense controlled substances in schedules II through V as a practitioner at the registered address of 1420 E. Edinger Ave., Suite 123, Santa Ana, California. App. 2 (Certification of Registration Status) to Govt. Mot., at 1. This registration does not expire until March 31, 2019. Id. Registrant is also the holder of California Physician’s and Surgeon’s License No. G80178, which was issued to him in 1994 by the MBC. App. 8 to Govt. Mot., at 2. However, on August 27, 2018, an Administrative Law Judge of the MBC issued an Interim Order suspending Registrant’s medical license after determining that, under California law, he was ‘‘mentally incompetent to practice medicine safely’’ and that ‘‘[p]ermitting [Registrant] to continue to engage in the unrestricted practice of medicine will endanger the public health, safety and welfare.’’ Id. at 7–8.1 Among other things, the Interim Order stated that, pending a full administrative determination, Registrant ‘‘shall not’’ ‘‘[p]ractice or attempt to practice any aspect of medicine in the 1 The California ALJ issued the Interim Order after considering the allegations set forth in multiple Accusations that the MBC’s Executive Director filed with the MBC from 2015–2018 alleging that Registrant, inter alia, (1) engaged in dishonest acts toward a female patient; (2) failed to maintain adequate and accurate records; (3) engaged in unprofessional conduct; (4) engaged in sexual misconduct and unprofessional misconduct related to Registrant’s romantic relationship with a female patient who subsequently became his wife; and (5) failed to participate in professional and ethical courses and to provide MBC-mandated quarterly declarations.
