Pursuant to the power of this court to enter a judgment affirming, modifying or reversing
the Commissioner’s decision with remand in Social Security actions under sentence four of
section 205(g) of the Social Security Act, 42 U.S.C. § 405(g), and in light of the Government’s
request, with Plaintiff’s consent, this Court remands this action for further administrative

RFC as appropriate based on the medical opinion evidence and obtain supplemental evidence
from a vocational expert, if necessary.
Therefore, this Court hereby reverses the Commissioner’s decision under sentence four of
42 U.S.C. § 405(g) with a remand of the cause to the Commissioner for further proceedings. See
Shalala v. Schafer, 506 U.S. 292 (1993); Melkonyan v. Sullivan, 501 U.S. 89 (1991).

The clerk of the court will enter a separate judgment pursuant to Rule 58 of the Federal
Rules of Civil Procedure.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 2nd day of February, 2015.
