IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

EASTERN DIVISION

JOANN JACKSON PLAINTIFF

V. CASE NO. 2:15CV00082 BSM-JTK

CAROLYN W. COLVIN, 

Acting Commissioner, Social 

Security Administration 

DEFENDANT

ORDER

Pending before the court is Defendant’s Voluntary Unopposed Motion to Remand (DE

#6) for further administrative proceedings. Sentence six of 42 U.S.C. § 405(g) authorizes a

remand in two limited situations: where the Commissioner requests a remand before

answering the complaint, or where the court orders the Commissioner to consider new,

material evidence that was for good cause not presented before the agency. Here, the

Defendant has not yet filed an Answer to Plaintiff’s complaint; thus, remand pursuant to

sentence six of 42 U.S.C. § 405(g) is appropriate. Therefore, the Commissioner’s

unopposed motion to remand is hereby granted, and the case is remanded to the

Commissioner for further administrative action pursuant to “sentence six” of section 405(g). 

IT IS SO ORDERED this 20th day of August, 2015.
