P. I., Plaintiff, v. COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY, Defendant.
ORDER
Charles H. Weigle United States Magistrate Judge
The Commissioner of Social Security has moved, under sentence four of 42 U.S.C. § 405(g), for the entry of judgment to remand this case for further administrative action. (Doc. 20). In light of that request, to which Plaintiff consents, the Court hereby REMANDS the Commissioner's decision under sentence four of 42 U.S.C. § 405(g) for further proceedings. See Shalala v. Schafer, 509 U.S. 292 (1993); Melkonyan v. Sullivan, 501 U.S. 89 (1991). On remand, the Commissioner will reevaluate the medical evidence, supplement the record if needed, offer Plaintiff the opportunity a supplemental hearing, and reconsider whether Plaintiff's disability continued or ceased during the period at issue.
Sentence four of § 405(g) provides: “The court shall have power to enter, upon the pleadings and transcript of the record, a judgment affirming, modifying, or reversing the decision of the Commissioner of Social Security, with or without remanding the cause for a rehearing.” 42 U.S.C. § 405(g).
SO ORDERED
