KILOLO KIJAKAZI, Acting Commissioner of

Defendant.

Before the Court is Defendant’s Motion to be Relieved of Providing Paper and CD Copies

11

of the Certified Administrative Record. ECF No. 11. Defendant states that an electronic copy of

12

the certified administrative record (the “e-CAR”) has been prepared and can be filed in this matter.

13

Id. at 3. However, because the Social Security Administration’s Office of Appellate Operations (the

14

“OAO”) is not operating at full capacity, Defendant is unable to provide a CD and hard copies of

15

the e-CAR to Plaintiff’s counsel and the Court. Id. Defendant therefore requests that he be relieved

16

of the requirement of providing a CD and hard copies of the e-CAR, and instead be allowed to file

17

the e-CAR under seal on CM/ECF, providing all case participants with access to the e-CAR. Id. at

18

3-4.

Defendant, Plaintiff’s counsel, and the Court.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Defendant is relieved of his obligations to provide a CD
and hard copies of the e-CAR to Plaintiff’s counsel and the Court.
DATED this 9th day of September, 2021.
