          Appeal from the United States District Court
               for the Southern District of Texas
                      USDC No. 4:03-CV-2902
                       --------------------

Before REAVLEY, JOLLY and HIGGINBOTHAM, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     Lynette J. Langhamer appeals the affirmance of the

Commissioner’s denial of her claim for disability benefits.        The

Commissioner has filed an unopposed motion to remand pursuant to

the fourth sentence of 42 U.S.C. § 405(g) to allow

reconsideration of the denial of benefits.

     A remand pursuant to the fourth sentence of 42 U.S.C.

§ 405(g) requires that this court also enter a judgment

affirming, reversing, or modifying the Commissioner’s decision.

     *
       Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that
this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except
under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4.
                          No. 04-20651
                               -2-

See Shalala v. Schaefer, 509 U.S. 292, 296-97 (1993).   Therefore,

we REVERSE the district court’s judgment, GRANT the motion to

remand, and REMAND to the district court with instructions to

remand to the Commissioner for rehearing.
