OPINION AND ORDER

Before the Court is the parties’ joint motion to remand this case to the Commissioner of
Social Security for further proceedings pursuant to sentence four of 42 U.S.C. § 405(g). (Doc.

Upon remand, the Commissioner will vacate the findings in the administrative
law judge’s decision, conduct further proceedings, and develop the administrative
record as necessary to determine anew whether Plaintiff is disabled within the
meaning of the Social Security Act. Upon remand, the Appeals Council will
instruct the administrative law judge to update the record and reconsider
Plaintiff’s symptoms and residual functional capacity in light of later submitted
evidence.
(Id.)
The motion is granted. The Commissioner’s decision is reversed and this matter is
remanded for further proceedings consistent with the relief requested in the motion, as set forth
above.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
