MUAD A.,[1]Plaintiff, v. COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY, Defendant.
ORDER REGARDING BRIEFING SCHEDULE
Kimberly G. Altman Magistrate Judge
This is a social security case. Plaintiff Muad A. brings this action under 42 U.S.C. § 405(g) challenging the final decision of the Commissioner of Social Security denying Plaintiff's application for Supplemental Security Income and Child's Insurance Benefits under the Social Security Act. See ECF No. 1. The parties have consented to the jurisdiction of the undersigned, who entered a scheduling order for the parties' motions for summary judgment and Plaintiff's reply on September 24, 2024. (ECF No. 8).
On October 15, 2024, Plaintiff filed his motion for summary judgment, arguing that the case should be remanded for benefits under Sentence Four of 42 U.S.C. § 405(g). (ECF No. 10). In lieu of a motion for summary judgment, the Commissioner filed a motion to remand for further administrative proceedings under Sentence Four. (ECF No. 12).
Given that motion practice in this case has diverged from the anticipated motions, the Court hereby sets new motion and briefing deadlines for the parties. Plaintiff shall respond to the Commissioner's motion to remand by December 9, 2024, and the Commissioner may file a reply by December 23, 2024.
SO ORDERED.
