ORDER REMANDING CASE TO THE SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION
The Commissioner of Social Security has moved to reverse the decision of the Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) and remand this action to the Commissioner. (Docket Entry 11.) Remand will expedite administrative review, ensure that the Commissioner can fully consider Plaintiff’s claim, and may make judicial review unnecessary. Remand is appropriate under 42 U.S.C. § 405(g), which provides in relevant part: 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.

For the foregoing reasons, because the motion is unopposed, and pursuant to the Supreme Court’s decision in Shalala v. Schaefer, 509 U.S. 292 (1993), the decision of the ALJ is REVERSED and this case is REMANDED to the Commissioner under 42 U.S.C. § 405(g). IT IS SO ORDERED this 22nd day of March 2024.
