DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE

Drug Enforcement Administration

[Docket No. 94–50]

Michael Schumacher; Denial of

Registration

On May 18, 1994, the Deputy

Assistant Administrator, Office of

Diversion Control, Drug Enforcement

Administration (DEA), issued an Order

to Show Cause to Michael Schumacher,

General Television (Respondent), of

Urbana, Illinois, proposing to deny his

application for a DEA Certificate of

Registration as a manufacturer. 21

U.S.C. 823(a) (1992). The statutory basis

for the Order to Show Cause was

Respondent’s lack of authorization to

manufacture controlled substances in

the State of Illinois. 21 U.S.C. 824(a)(3).

In addition, the Order to Show Cause

alleged that Respondent’s registration

would be inconsistent with the public

interest, as the term is used in 21 U.S.C.

823(a) and 824(a)(4).

The Order to Show Cause was sent to

Respondent’s registered location by

registered mail on May 18, 1994, and on

June 10, 1994, Respondent filed a

request for hearing with the Office of

Administrative Law Judges. The matter

was docketed before Administrative

Law Judge Mary Ellen Bittner. This case

was then consolidated with Docket No.

94–37 wherein Normaco of Delaware,

Inc. (Normaco) had requested a hearing

pursuant to 21 CFR 1301.43(a) (1994), in

response to a notice of Respondent’s

application for registration as a bulk

manufacturer of various Schedule II

controlled substances (58 FR 60061

(1994)). On June 28, 1994, the

administrative law judge granted

Normaco’s request to withdraw from

this matter.

Counsel for the Government filed a

motion for summary disposition on July

18, 1994, based on an order of the

Illinois Department of Professional

Regulation (DPR), dated July 10, 1992,

denying Respondent’s application for a

state license to manufacture and

conduct medical research under the

Illinois Controlled Substances Act.

Respondent did not file a response to

the Government’s motion.

On September 29, 1994, the

administrative law judge issued her

opinion and recommended decision.

The administrative law judge granted

the Government’s motion for summary

disposition finding that Respondent is

not eligible for a DEA registration as a

bulk manufacturer of Schedule I and II

controlled substances and therefore a

hearing would serve no purpose. The

administrative law judge found that

Respondent currently lacks state

authorization to handle controlled

substances in the State of Illinois

because Respondent was denied a state

license to manufacture controlled

substances by the Illinois DPR on July

10, 1992. As the administrative law

judge noted, DPR’s denial was based on

findings that Respondent was unaware

what substances were controlled under

Illinois law, that Respondent did not

have a background in those sciences

pertaining to controlled substances, and

that Respondent failed to demonstrate

that its application should be granted.

The administrative law judge noted that

21 U.S.C. 823(a), the provision requiring

registration of manufacturers of

Schedule I and II controlled substances,

contains no express threshold

requirement of state authorization.

Nonetheless, she concluded that where

as here state law requires manufacturers

of controlled substances to obtain a state
