On November 25, 2014, the parties filed a Joint Proposed Stipulation to Remand under

request that the Court remand the case for further proceedings and enter judgment in favor of
Plaintiff. Doc. 15 (“Joint Stipulation”). The parties stipulate that:
Upon remand, the agency will afford Plaintiff the opportunity for a new hearing before an
ALJ, where Plaintiff may testify and present additional arguments and evidence. The ALJ
will further evaluate the claimant’s credibility, address the opinions from the Veteran’s
Administration and address the discrepancies between the opinions of the state agency
reviewing physicians. The ALJ will also consider whether additional testimony from
medical or vocational experts is necessary. The ALJ will proceed through the sequential
evaluation process as needed to reach a de novo decision.

for further proceedings consistent with the parties’ Joint Stipulation and enters judgment in favor
