STACY GREFE, Plaintiff, v. COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY, Defendant.
ORDER
PHILIP R. LAMMENS, MAGISTRATE JUDGE
In this action, Plaintiff has filed a petition for writ of mandamus seeking to compel the Commissioner of Social Security to pay Plaintiff's past-due Social Security Disability Benefits. (Doc. 1). On April 11, 2022, the Commissioner issued a Notice of Award, awarding Plaintiff past due benefits beginning in July 2003. (Doc. 4-1). The Notice advised that Plaintiff's past due benefits would be withheld pending a determination as to whether she received SSI benefits for this period. Now one year later, Plaintiff still has not received her past due benefits. Accordingly, on or before June 6, 2023, the Commissioner shall advise the Court why Plaintiff's petition for writ of mandamus should not be granted.
