COLVIN, Defendant. 10 United States District Court Northern District of California 11 In addition to the requirements stated in the Procedural Order for Social Security Review 12 13 Actions (4), the parties shall file either a joint statement or separate statements of facts setting 14 forth all relevant medical evidence and written and oral testimony in the Administrative Record. 15 Accordingly, the Court ORDERS the parties to meet and confer within 21 days of service of 16 Defendant’s answer for the purpose of determining whether they are able to file a joint statement 17 of facts in the record, or whether it is necessary for the parties to file separate statements of facts. 18 A. Joint Statement of Facts If the parties are able to agree on a joint statement of facts, the joint statement shall be 19 20 signed by both parties and filed by the same deadline as Plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment 21 or for remand. Each fact must be set forth in a separately numbered paragraph, preferably in 22 chronological order, and cite to a specific portion of the record where the fact finds support. 23 B. 24 25 Separate Statements of Facts If the parties are unable to agree on a joint statement of facts, they shall comply with the following requirements for separate statements of facts. Plaintiff’s Separate Statement of Facts 26 1. 27 At the time Plaintiff files the motion for summary judgment or for remand, Plaintiff must 28 also file a statement, separate from the motion and memorandum of law, setting forth each fact 1 from the Administrative Record on which Plaintiff relies in support of the motion, including all 2 relevant medical evidence and written and oral testimony in the record. Each fact in the separate 3 statement must be set forth in a separately numbered paragraph, preferably in chronological order, 4 and must cite to a specific portion of the record where the fact finds support.

Reply Statement of Facts 17 If Defendant sets forth additional facts in the cross-motion, Plaintiff shall file a statement, 18 separate from the reply brief, with correspondingly numbered paragraphs indicating whether 19 Plaintiff disputes the statement of fact as set forth by Defendant and, if disputed, a reference to the 20 specific portion of the record supporting Plaintiff’s position. 21 IT IS SO ORDERED. 22 23 24 25 Dated: October 1, 2014 ______________________________________ MARIA-ELENA JAMES United States Magistrate Judge 26 27 28 2
