The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) issued an order to revoke the DEA registration of Robert Esser, D.D.S., from Erie, Pennsylvania, because his dental license is suspended, making him unable to legally handle controlled substances in Pennsylvania. Dr. Esser did not request a hearing to contest this, leading to his default according to DEA rules. The DEA has denied any pending applications for Dr. Esser to renew or modify his registration, effective January 29, 2025. Consequently, Dr. Esser is not permitted to dispense controlled substances as he does not meet the legal requirements set by the state and DEA regulations.
Simple Explanation
In a simple way, this means that Dr. Esser, a dentist, can't give out special medicines anymore because he lost his permission for that in Pennsylvania. The rules say if he can't do it there, he can't do it anywhere, so he didn't try to change the decision, which means it's final.
