TAKIAH MIGNON STROMAN,

Plaintiff,

v.

CAROLYN W COLVIN,

Defendant.

Case No. 15-cv-00633-KAW 

ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFF'S 

MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT 

AS UNOPPOSED AND REMANDING 

THE CASE FOR FURTHER

PROCEEDINGS

Re: Dkt. No. 16

On June 23, 2015, Plaintiff Takiah Mignon Stroman filed a motion for summary judgment 

in her social security case. The Government’s opposition was due on or before July 21, 2015. To 

date, the Government has not filed an opposition despite its communication with Plaintiff’s 

counsel. (See Dkt. No. 18-1.)

Accordingly, the motion for summary judgment is GRANTED as unopposed and the case 

is REMANDED for further administrative proceedings before a different administrative law judge. 

See Judge Westmore’s General Standing Order ¶ 22 (“The failure of the opposing party to file a 

memorandum of points and authorities in opposition to any motion shall constitute consent to the 

granting of the motion”). Specifically, the further proceedings shall include making a new 

determination regarding Plaintiff’s residual functional capacity, shall address the weight given to 

Plaintiff’s treating physicians, and shall address Plaintiff’s credibility prior to determining whether 

Plaintiff is disabled under the Social Security Act.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: August 3, 2015
