No. 2:15-cv-2621 CKD

v.

ORDER

CAROLYN W. COLVIN,
Acting Commissioner of Social Security,
Defendant.

Plaintiff has filed a motion for summary judgment. The administrative transcript does not

18
19

contain an itemized list of the exhibits. The “List of Exhibits” simply lumps all of the “medical

20

evidence” and indicates such evidence is found at pages 312-728 of the administrative transcript.

21

Similarly, the “disability related development and documentation” indicates this evidence can be

22

found at pages 222-311. Compiling all the evidence in such a manner, without specific

23

itemization of the records found therein, does not foster meaningful review. Such a practice is

24

also contrary to the thousands of administrative transcripts heretofore submitted to this court.

25

See, e.g., court transcript indices submitted in Smith v. SS, (E.D. Cal.), case no. 2:12-cv-2707

26

CKD; Jekov v. SS, (E.D. Cal.), case no. 2:12-cv-2768 CKD, DeSchryver v. SS, (E.D. Cal.), case

27

no. 2:16-cv-146 TLN CKD.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that defendant shall, no later than October 19,

2016, file an amended court transcript index, specifically itemizing the records contained in the

administrative transcript.
