NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

TERREA LYNN SULLIVAN,

Plaintiff,

v.

COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL 

SECURITY,

Defendant.

Case No. 15-cv-03555-MEJ 

ORDER RE: STATEMENT OF 

ADMINISTRATIVE RECORD

As set forth in the Procedural Order for Social Security Review Actions (Dkt. No. 6), this 

matter will be deemed submitted for decision without oral argument based on the parties’ motions 

for summary judgment and/or remand. In connection with their motions, the parties shall file

either a joint statement or separate statements of the Administrative Record, summarizing: (1) the 

procedural history of the case; (2) testimonial evidence from the hearing(s) before the 

Administrative Law Judge; and (3) all relevant medical evidence of record. Accordingly, the 

Court ORDERS the parties to meet and confer within 21 days of service of Defendant’s answer 

for the purpose of determining whether they are able to file a joint statement of the Administrative 

Record, or whether it is necessary for the parties to file separate statements.

A. Joint Statement of the Administrative Record

If the parties are able to agree on a joint statement of the Administrative Record, the 

statement shall be signed by both parties and filed by the same deadline as Plaintiff’s motion for 

summary judgment or for remand. Each fact must be set forth in a separately numbered paragraph 

and cite to a specific portion of the Administrative Record where the fact finds support. 

B. Separate Statements of the Administrative Record

If the parties are unable to agree on a joint statement, they shall comply with the following 

requirements for separate statements of the Administrative Record.

1. Plaintiff’s Separate Statement of the Administrative Record 

At the time Plaintiff files the motion for summary judgment or for remand, Plaintiff must

also file a statement, separate from the motion and memorandum of law, setting forth each fact 

from the Administrative Record on which Plaintiff relies in support of the motion. Each fact must 

be set forth in a separately numbered paragraph and cite to a specific portion of the Administrative 

Record where the fact finds support. A failure to submit a separate statement in this form may 

constitute grounds for denial of the motion.

2. Defendant’s Separate Statement of the Administrative Record 

At the time Defendant files the cross-motion for summary judgment or for remand, 

Defendant must also file a statement, separate from the motion and memorandum of law, setting 

forth: (a) for each paragraph of Plaintiff’s separate statement, a correspondingly numbered 

paragraph indicating whether Defendant disputes the statement of fact as set forth by Plaintiff and, 

if disputed, a reference to the specific portion of the Administrative Record supporting 

Defendant’s position; and (b) any additional facts from the Administrative Record on which 

Defendant relies in support of the motion. Each additional fact must be set forth in a separately 

numbered paragraph and cite to a specific portion of the Administrative Record where the fact 

finds support.

3. Reply Statement of Facts 

If Defendant sets forth additional facts in the cross-motion, Plaintiff shall file a statement, 

separate from the reply brief, with correspondingly numbered paragraphs indicating whether 

Plaintiff disputes the statement of fact as set forth by Defendant and, if disputed, a reference to the 

specific portion of the Administrative Record supporting Plaintiff’s position. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
