SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 253001
On October 22, 2019, the Acting
Assistant Administrator, Diversion
Control Division, Drug Enforcement
Administration (hereinafter,
Government or DEA), issued an Order to
Show Cause (hereinafter, OSC) to
Steven A. Holper, M.D., (hereinafter,
Registrant), of Las Vegas, Nevada.
Government’s Request for Final Agency
Action Exhibit (hereinafter, RFAAX) 5
(OSC), at 1. The OSC proposed the
revocation of Registrant’s Certificate of
Registration No. BH2498106. It alleged
that Registrant is without ‘‘authority to
handle controlled substances in Nevada,
the state in which [Registrant is]
registered with the DEA.’’ Id. (citing 21
U.S.C. 823(f) and 824(a)(3)).
Specifically, the OSC alleged that
Registrant’s state controlled substance
license expired on October 21, 2018. Id.
at 1–2. The OSC also alleged that
Registrant’s state medical license was
revoked by the Board of Medical
Examiners of the State of Nevada on
September 6, 2019. Id. at 2. The OSC
further alleged that Registrant is not
eligible to obtain or retain a DEA
registration because he lacks state
authority to handle controlled
substances in the state of Nevada. Id.
The OSC notified Registrant of the
right to either request a hearing on the
allegations or submit a written
statement in lieu of exercising the right
to a hearing, the procedures for electing
each option, and the consequences for
failing to elect either option. Id. (citing
21 CFR 1301.43). The OSC also notified
Registrant of the opportunity to submit
PO 00000
Frm 00058
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
64165
a corrective action plan. Id. at 3 (citing
21 U.S.C. 824(c)(2)(C)).
A DEA Diversion Investigator
personally served Registrant with the
OSC on December 16, 2019. RFAAX 12,
at 2–3 (Declaration of Diversion
Investigator One). I find that more than
thirty days have now passed since the
Government accomplished service of
the OSC. Further, based on the
Government’s written representations, I
find that neither Registrant, nor anyone
purporting to represent Registrant,
requested a hearing, submitted a written
statement while waiving Registrant’s
right to a hearing, or submitted a
corrective action plan. RFAAX 11, at 3–
4 (Declaration of Diversion Investigator
Two). Accordingly, I find that Registrant
has waived the right to a hearing and
the right to submit a written statement
and corrective action plan. 21 CFR
1301.43(d) and 21 U.S.C. 824(c)(2)(C). I,
therefore, issue this Decision and Order
based on the record submitted by the
Government, which constitutes the
entire record before me. 21 CFR
1301.46.
Findings of Fact
Registrant’s DEA Registration
Registrant is the holder of DEA
Certificate of Registration No.
BH2498106 at the registered address of
3233 W. Charleston Blvd. 202, Las
Vegas, NV 89102. RFAAX 1 (Registrant’s
DEA Certificate of Registration).
Pursuant to this registration, Registrant
is authorized to dispense controlled
substances in schedules II through V as
a practitioner. Id. Registrant’s
registration will expire on its own terms
on October 31, 2020. Id.
DEA Investigation and the Status of
Registrant’s State Licenses
On July 22, 2019, Registrant was
sentenced in the United States District
Court for the District of Nevada on a
matter related to his conviction on one
count of unlawful distribution of a
controlled substance. RFAAX 11, at 2.
On August 12, 2019, a DEA Diversion
Investigator (hereinafter, DI Two) asked
Registrant, through his legal counsel, to
voluntarily surrender his DEA
registration. Id. Registrant declined. Id.
The General Counsel for the Nevada
State Board of Pharmacy (hereinafter,
Pharmacy Board) sent DI Two a letter
dated September 17, 2019, stating that
Registrant did not renew his Nevada
controlled substance license and did not
hold an active controlled substance
license with the Pharmacy Board.
RFAAX 4. According to the online
records of the Pharmacy Board,
