Sualeh Kamal Ashraf, Petitioner v. Drug Enforcement Administration

1. Whether, after Ruan v. United States, 597 U.S. 450 (2022), the Controlled Substances Act permits the Drug Enforcement Administration to revoke a physician’s registration—and a court of appeals to affirm that revocation—without any finding that the physician knowingly or intentionally violated the Act? 2. Whether due process permits an agency and a reviewing court to sustain the revocation of a professional license where the respondent demonstrates that material evidence relied upon by the agency was false or unreliable, and the court declines to address that showing? 3. Whether the Eleventh Circuit’s categorical refusal to apply Ruan’s mens rea requirement to administrative revocation proceedings conflicts with this Court’s interpretation of the Controlled Substances Act and creates an incentive for the government to bypass criminal safeguards by proceeding administratively?
