Does the Administrator of the Drug Enforcement Agency have an obligation to explain his or her reasons for a decision on whether to grant a conditional discharge?

MultiRegion, United States of America

The following excerpt is from Azen v. Drug Enforcement Agency, 76 F.3d 384 (9th Cir. 1996):

The Administrator fulfills his obligation to explain his decision if he considers the relevant factors. See Trawick v. DEA, 861 F.2d 72, 76 (4th Cir.1988). "Remand for more careful consideration of the relevant factors is generally proper only when it is unclear whether the Administrator actually considered the relevant factors at all." Id. at 76. Here, the Administrator clearly stated that he considered the relevant factors, and he stated what evidence supported his finding that those factors had been established.
