UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JOHN L. GIPSON,

Plaintiff,

v.

CAROLYN W. COLVIN, Acting 

Commissioner of Social Security,

Defendant.

Case No. 1:14-cv-01709-EPG

ORDER REMANDING CASE

(ECF No. 16)

Based upon the parties’ Stipulation for Remand (ECF No. 16), this matter shall be 

remanded to the Commissioner as authorized by sentence four of 42 U.S.C. § 405(g) and 

judgment shall be entered for Plaintiff and against Defendant.

On remand, the Office of Disability Adjudication and Review’s Appeal Council will 

remand the case to an administrative law judge (“ALJ”) for a new hearing and decision. The 

Appeals Council will instruct the ALJ to reassess the credibility of Plaintiff’s subjective 

complaints consistent with 20 C.F.R. §§ 404.1529, 416.929, and Social Security Ruling (“SSR”) 

96-7p and to evaluate any lay witness evidence consistent with SSR 06-03p. The Appeals Council 

will also instruct the ALJ to further evaluate whether Plaintiff has the residual functional capacity 

to perform his past relevant work and, if appropriate, obtain supplemental vocational expert 

testimony to assist in determining what jobs exist, if any, for Plaintiff given his age, education, 

vocational factors, and residual functional capacity.
