The OSC/ ISO informed Respondent of the immediate suspension of her DEA Certificate of Registration (registration or COR), Control No. BB9937624, pursuant to 21 U.S.C. 824(d), alleging that Respondent’s continued registration constitutes ‘‘ ‘an imminent danger to the public health or safety.’ ’’ Id. at 1 (quoting 21 U.S.C. 824(d)). The OSC/ ISO also proposed the revocation of Respondent’s registration, alleging that Respondent’s continued registration is inconsistent with the public interest and alleging that Respondent has no state authority to handle controlled substances. Id. (citing 21 U.S.C. 823(g)(1), 824(a)(3), 824(a)(4)). 2 All contract personnel will sign appropriate nondisclosure agreements. 3 Electronic Document Information System (EDIS): https://edis.usitc.gov. VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:44 Apr 04, 2024 Jkt 262001 On September 20, 2023, Respondent requested a hearing. On October 13, 2023, the Government filed a Motion for Summary Disposition only pertaining to the allegation that Respondent lacks state authority to handle controlled substances.1 See Government’s Notice of Filing of Evidence and Motion for Summary Disposition (Motion for Summary Disposition), dated October 13, 2023.2 Respondent did not respond to the Government’s Motion for Summary Disposition. On October 23, 2023, Administrative Law Judge Paul E. Soeffing (the ALJ) granted the Government’s Motion for Summary Disposition and recommended the revocation of Respondent’s registration, finding that because Respondent lacks state authority to handle controlled substances in South Carolina, the state in which she is registered with DEA, ‘‘there is no other fact of consequence for this tribunal to decide in order to determine whether or not she is entitled to hold a COR.’’ Order Granting the Government’s Motion for Summary Disposition, and Recommended Rulings, Findings of Fact, Conclusions of Law, and Decision of the Administrative Law Judge (RD), at 6. Respondent did not file exceptions to the RD. Having reviewed the entire record, the Agency adopts and hereby incorporates by reference the entirety of the ALJ’s rulings, findings of fact, conclusions of law, and recommended sanction as found in the RD and summarizes and expands upon portions thereof herein. Findings of Fact The Government asserts that on October 1, 2022, Respondent’s South Carolina controlled substance registration expired. RD, at 3–4.3 Further, the Government asserts that on June 30, 2023, Respondent’s South 1 This suggests that the Government has dropped the public interest allegation included in the OSC/ ISO; as such, the Agency will only consider the lack of state authority allegation from the OSC/ISO. 2 The Government originally filed a Motion for Summary Disposition on October 12, 2023, and therein asserted that Respondent had failed to timely file an Answer to the allegations in the OSC/ ISO. RD, at 2 n.4; Motion for Summary Disposition, dated October 12, 2023, at 3–4. Later on October 12, 2023, the Government was informed that Respondent had filed an Answer on October 10, 2023, and was provided with a copy of Respondent’s Answer. RD, at 2 n.4. On October 13, 2023, the Government filed its amended Motion for Summary Disposition, referenced in this Decision, with revisions based on its receipt of the copy of Respondent’s Answer. Id.; see also Motion for Summary Disposition, dated October 13, 2023. 3 See also Motion for Summary Disposition, dated October 13, 2023, Exhibit (GX) 1; Motion for Summary Disposition, dated October 13, 2023, at 4– 5. PO 00000 Frm 00075 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 24035 Carolina medical license expired. RD, at 4.4 According to South Carolina online records, of which the Agency takes official notice, Respondent’s South Carolina controlled substance registration is expired.5 SC DHEC Bureau of Drug Control, Controlled Substances Registration Verification, https://.dhec.sc.gov//Licensing/Home/ Verify (last visited date of signature of this Order). Further, Respondent’s South Carolina medical license is listed as ‘‘lapsed.’’ South Carolina Board of Medical Examiners, Licensee Lookup, https://verify.llronline.com/LicLookup/ Med/Med.aspx (last visited date of signature of this Order). Accordingly, the Agency finds that Respondent is not currently licensed to engage in the practice of medicine nor to handle controlled substances in South Carolina, the state in which she 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 (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 71371, 71372 (2011), pet. for rev. denied, 481 4 See also Motion for Summary Disposition, dated October 13, 2023, at 4. As noted by the ALJ, the Government did not submit documentary evidence regarding the status of Respondent’s South Carolina medical license as they had for Respondent’s South Carolina controlled substance registration, see supra n.3. RD, at 4 n.8. 5 Under the Administrative Procedure Act, an agency ‘‘may take official notice of facts at any stage in a proceeding—even in the final decision.’’ United States Department of Justice, Attorney General’s Manual on the Administrative Procedure Act 80 (1947) (Wm. W. Gaunt & Sons, Inc., Reprint 1979). Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 556(e), ‘‘[w]hen an agency decision rests on official notice of a material fact not appearing in the evidence in the record, a party is entitled, on timely request, to an opportunity to show the contrary.’’ Accordingly, Respondent may dispute the Agency’s finding by filing a properly supported motion for reconsideration of findings of fact within fifteen calendar days of the date of this Order. Any such motion and response shall be filed and served by email to the other party and to Office of the Administrator, Drug Enforcement Administration at dea.addo.attorneys@dea.gov.
