DOUGLAS HOUSE, Plaintiff, v. MARTIN O'MALLEY, Commissioner of Social Security Administration, Defendant.
ORDER
AMANDA ARNOLD SANSONE, UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE
The Commissioner of Social Security (Commissioner) moves to remand this case for further action under sentence four of 42 U.S.C. § 405(g). (Doc. 24). This request is unopposed. (Id., p. 1).
The Commissioner requests remand with entry of judgment to provide the plaintiff an opportunity for a new hearing. (Id.).

Schaefer, 509 U.S. 292 (1993).
Accordingly, the Commissioner's unopposed motion for entry of judgment with remand (Doc. 24) is GRANTED. The Clerk is directed to enter judgment in favor of the plaintiff and close the file.
ORDERED in Tampa, Florida on May 22, 2024.
