ORDER
Defendant Berryhill moves to reverse the administrative decision denying Plaintiff
Wynn’s application for benefits, asks that this case be remanded for further proceedings, and
asks for entry of judgment. Doc. 12 (citing sentence four of 28 U.S.C. § 405(g)). Section 405(g)
provides in relevant part:
The court shall have power to enter, upon the pleadings and
transcript of the record, a judgment affirming, modifying, or
reversing the decision of the Commissioner of Social Security,
with or without remanding the cause for a rehearing….
Berryhill states remand is necessary so that the administrative law judge may evaluate the entire
record, including the opinions of Joseph Mayus, M.D., and a psychologist, William Robison,
Psy.D., and in order to expedite administrative review.
In view of Wynn’s consent to the motion, Doc. 14, and for good cause shown, Berryhill’s
motion, Doc. 12, is granted. The Commissioner’s decision is reversed and the case is remanded
for further proceedings, consistent with this Order.
