Commissioner of Social Security (Commissioner) denying an

application for benefits. The parties have consented to the

jurisdiction of the United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28

U.S.C. § 636(c)(1), and the matter has been assigned to the

Magistrate Judge to conduct all further proceedings in this case,

including entry of final judgment.

various facts that tend to excuse Defendant’s failure to file a

timely brief in accordance with this Court’s scheduling order.

Further, on the same date, Defendant filed its brief, which

otherwise complies with the terms of the scheduling order.

Accordingly, it is HEREBY ORDERED that the order to show

cause that issued from this Court on April 30, 2008, IS

DISCHARGED.

Defendant IS INFORMED that repeated, unintentional or

neglectful violations of Court rules or orders may be considered

to be reckless conduct that could result in sanctions.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
