Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 170 / Tuesday, September 7, 2021 / Notices
sradovich on DSKJLST7X2PROD with NOTICES
Accordingly, I find that Respondent is
not currently licensed to practice
medicine in Florida, the state in which
Respondent is registered with the DEA.
Discussion
Pursuant to 21 U.S.C. 824(a)(3), the
Attorney General is authorized to
suspend or revoke a registration issued
under section 823 of the Controlled
Substances Act (hereinafter, CSA)
‘‘upon a finding that the registrant . . .
has had his State license or registration
suspended . . . [or] revoked . . . by
competent State authority and is no
longer authorized by State law to engage
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, M.D., 76 FR 71,371
(2011), pet. for rev. denied, 481 F. App’x
826 (4th Cir. 2012); Frederick Marsh
Blanton, M.D., 43 FR 27,616, 27,617
(1978).
This rule derives from the text of two
provisions of the CSA. First, Congress
defined the term ‘‘practitioner’’ to mean
‘‘a physician . . . 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.,
James L. Hooper, 76 FR at 71,371–72;
Sheran Arden Yeates, M.D., 71 FR
39,130, 39,131 (2006); Dominick A.
Ricci, M.D., 58 FR 51,104, 51,105 (1993);
Bobby Watts, M.D., 53 FR 11,919, 11,920
(1988); Frederick Marsh Blanton, 43 FR
at 27,617.
According to Florida statute, ‘‘A
practitioner, in good faith and in the
course of his or her professional practice
VerDate Sep<11>2014
00:30 Sep 04, 2021
Jkt 253001
only, may prescribe, administer,
dispense, mix, or otherwise prepare a
controlled substance.’’ Fla. Stat.
§ 893.05(1)(a) (2021). Further, a
‘‘practitioner’’ as defined by Florida
statute includes ‘‘a physician licensed
under chapter 458.’’ 6 Id. at § 893.02(23).
Here, the undisputed evidence in the
record is that Respondent currently
lacks authority to practice medicine in
Florida. As already discussed, a
physician must be a licensed
practitioner to dispense a controlled
substance in Florida. Thus, because
Respondent lacks authority to practice
medicine in Florida and, therefore, is
not authorized to handle controlled
substances in Florida, Respondent is not
eligible to maintain a DEA registration.
Accordingly, I will order that
Respondent’s DEA registration be
revoked.
Order
Pursuant to 28 CFR 0.100(b) and the
authority vested in me by 21 U.S.C.
824(a), I hereby revoke DEA Certificate
of Registration No. FT3429227 issued to
Lora L. Thaxton, M.D. Further, pursuant
to 28 CFR 0.100(b) and the authority
vested in me by 21 U.S.C. 823(f), I
hereby deny any pending application of
Lora L. Thaxton to renew or modify this
registration, as well as any other
pending application of Lora L. Thaxton
for additional registration in Florida.
This Order is effective October 7, 2021.
Anne Milgram,
Administrator.

months of the prior calendar year
equaled or exceeded 7.5 percent. Title
XII Section 1202(b)(3)(C)(i) and 20 CFR
606.41(c) provide that a qualifying state
must pay at least 25 percent of the
amount due on or before September 30
of the taxable year, and must pay at least
one-third of the remaining amount on or
before September 30 in each of the
following three years. 20 CFR 606.41(d)
further clarifies that the timely and full
payment of one-fourth of the interest
due prior to October 1 is a precondition
to approval of this deferral.
The New York State Department of
Labor applied for this deferral prior to
the July 1, 2021 deadline. Pursuant to 20
CFR 606.41(e)(2) the Employment and
Training Administration has confirmed
that the state’s rate of insured
unemployment exceeded the 7.5 percent
threshold during the first 6 months of
calendar year 2020. As such New York’s
application for the high unemployment
deferral has been conditionally
approved contingent on the timely
payment of one-fourth of the interest
due on or before September 30, 2021.
