(hereinafter, Registrant). Government’s Request for Final Agency Action (hereinafter, RFAA) Exhibit (hereinafter, RFAAX) 1 (OSC). The OSC proposed to revoke Registrant’s DEA Certificate of Registration Number BH9966904 (hereinafter, registration) and to deny any pending applications for renewal or modification of the registration, pursuant to 21 U.S.C. 824(a)(4) and 823(f), because Registrant’s ‘‘continued registration is inconsistent with the public interest.’’ Id. (citing 21 U.S.C. 824(a)(4) and 823(f)). The OSC alleged that Registrant is licensed as a community pharmacy in the State of Florida. Id. at 2. It further alleged that Ekaette Isemin is Registrant’s sole corporate officer, and that she is licensed as a pharmacist in Florida. Id. The OSC alleged that ‘‘[o]n six occasions, [Registrant] dispensed controlled substances to a DEA confidential source pursuant to fraudulent prescriptions, despite clear evidence of diversion.’’ Id. at 2. The OSC further alleged that ‘‘[Registrant’s] dispensing of controlled substances in the face of clear evidence of diversion violated federal and state law.’’ Id. at 5 (citing 21 CFR 1306.06, 1306.04(a); Fla. Stat. §§ 893.04(2)(a), 465.016(1)(i), 456.072(1)(m); Fla. Admin. Code. Ann. r. 64B16–27.831, 64B16–27.810). VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:16 Jul 27, 2021 Jkt 253001 The OSC notified Registrant of its right to request a hearing on the allegations or to submit a written statement while waiving its right to a hearing, the procedures for electing either option, and the consequence of failing to elect either option. Id. at 5–6 (citing 21 CFR 1301.43). In response to the OSC, Ekaette Isemin filed a timely request for an administrative hearing on Registrant’s behalf, and requested that all future notices and mailings be mailed to her. RFAAX 2 (Request for Hearing). On December 26, 2019, the Chief Administrative Law Judge (hereinafter, Chief ALJ) established a schedule for the filing of prehearing statements. RFAAX 3 (Order for Prehearing Statements). The Government filed a timely prehearing statement on January 6, 2020,1 but Registrant failed to file any prehearing statement by the deadline. RFAAX 4 (Order Terminating Proceedings), at 1– 2. On January 21, 2020, the Chief ALJ issued an Order Directing Compliance and Postponing Prehearing Conference, which afforded Registrant until February 5, 2020, to file its prehearing statement and to show good cause for the delay. Id. at 2. The Order Directing Compliance and the Order for Prehearing Statements were sent to Ms. Isemin via first class mail, and neither document was returned as undeliverable. Id. Neither Registrant nor Ms. Isemin filed a showing of good cause for the delay or a prehearing statement by the deadline set forth in the Order Directing Compliance.2 Id. Therefore, the Chief ALJ determined that Registrant had ‘‘effectively waived its right to a hearing,’’ and he terminated the proceedings on February 6, 2020. Id.3 I agree with the Chief ALJ that Registrant waived its right to a 1 The Government notified Registrant in its prehearing statement that Registrant’s DEA registration was subject to revocation on the additional ground that Registrant lacked authority to handle controlled substances in Florida, the state in which it is registered with the DEA. See 21 U.S.C. 824(a)(3). The Prehearing Statement was mailed to Ms. Isemin at the address that Ms. Isemin designated for future filings in her December 20, 2019 request for hearing. See RFAAX 2, at 2. 2 The Order Terminating Proceedings noted that Registrant was not currently represented by counsel and ‘‘it appear[ed] that Ms. Isemin [was] appearing on the [Registrant’s] behalf.’’ RFAAX 4, at 1 (citing 21 CFR 1316.50). 3 In the Order Terminating Proceedings, the Chief ALJ stated that ‘‘Agency precedent is clear that the unwillingness or inability of a party to comply with the directives of the [ALJ] may support an implied waiver of that party’s right to a hearing.’’ Id. (citing Robert M Brodkin, D.P.M, 77 FR 73,678, 73,679 (2012); Kamir Garces-Mejias, M.D., 72 FR 54,931, 54,932 (2007); Andrew Desonia, M.D., 72 FR 54,293, 54,294 (2007); Alan R.

Having considered the record in its entirety, I find that the record establishes, by substantial evidence, that Registrant committed acts rendering its continued registration inconsistent with the public interest. Additionally, I find that Registrant lacks authority to handle controlled substances in the State of Florida, the state where it is registered with DEA. Accordingly, I conclude that the appropriate sanction is for Registrant’s DEA registration to be revoked. I. Findings of Fact A. Registrant’s DEA Registration Registrant is registered with DEA as a retail pharmacy in Schedules II through V under DEA registration number BH9966904, at the registered address of 1400 Hand Avenue, Suite 0, Ormond Beach, Florida 32174. RFAAX 5 (DEA Certificate of Registration). This registration expires on August 31, 2021. Id. B. The Status of Registrant’s State Authority Registrant was previously licensed as a community pharmacy in the State of Florida under license number PH22199. RFAAX 6 Appendix (hereinafter, App’x) B (Division of Corporations Printout), at 1. Registrant’s sole corporate officer was Ekaette Isemin, id., who was previously registered as a pharmacist in Florida under license number PS28851. App’x A, at 1. On August 20, 2018, the Florida Department of Health (hereinafter, Florida DOH) ordered the emergency suspension of Ms. Isemin’s pharmacy license, based on its determination that ‘‘Ms. Isemin’s continued practice as a pharmacist constitutes an immediate, serious danger to the health, safety, and welfare of the public . . . .’’ Id. at 18. The order concluded that Ms. Isemin repeatedly violated state law over the course of approximately sixteen months by dispensing controlled substances to a 4 See 21 CFR 1301.43(d) (‘‘If any person entitled to a hearing or to participate in a hearing pursuant to § 1301.32 or §§ 1301.34–1301.36 . . . files [a request for a hearing] and fails to appear at the hearing, such person shall be deemed to have waived the opportunity for a hearing or to participate in the hearing, unless such person shows good cause for such failure’’); see also RFAAX 3, at 3–4 (notifying Registrant that ‘‘[f]ailure to timely file a prehearing statement that complies with the directions provided [therein] may result in a sanction, including (but not limited to) a waiver of hearing and an implied withdrawal of a request for hearing’’).
