    (a) A DEA Form 222 must not be filled if either of the following 
apply:
    (1) The order is not complete, legible, or properly prepared, 
executed, or endorsed.
    (2) The order shows any alteration, erasure, or change of any 
description.
    (b) If a DEA Form 222 cannot be filled for any reason under this 
section, the supplier must return Copies 1 and 2 to the purchaser with a 
statement as to the reason (e.g., illegible or altered).
    (c) A supplier may for any reason refuse to accept any order and if 
a supplier refuses to accept the order, a statement that the order is 
not accepted is sufficient for purposes of this paragraph.
    (d) When a purchaser receives an unaccepted order, Copies 1 and 2 of 
the DEA Form 222 and the statement must be attached to Copy 3 and 
retained in the files of the purchaser in accordance with Sec. 1305.17. 
A defective DEA Form 222 may not be corrected; it must be replaced by a 
new DEA Form 222 for the order to be filled.
