Judith A. Saunders, Plaintiff-appellant, v. Louis W. Sullivan, M.d., Secretary of Health and Humanservices, Defendant-appellee, 951 F.2d 1260 (10th Cir. 1991)
Annotate this CaseThis is an appeal from a denial of social security disability benefits. The Plaintiff-Appellant ("Saunders") was denied benefits for her alleged disability by the Appeals Council of the Department of Health and Human Services upon the recommendation of an administrative law judge. The district court affirmed this denial and Saunders appealed.
On September 3, 1991, the Defendant-Appellee ("Sullivan") filed an Unopposed Motion to Remand for further administrative proceedings including supplemental vocational expert testimony. Saunders has filed no motion in opposition, and Sullivan has stipulated: "Appellee has contacted counsel for appellant and he has no objection to a remand in this case." Upon a review of the record we find no reason why we should not grant Sullivan's Unopposed Motion to Remand.
Accordingly, we REMAND this case for further administrative proceedings including supplemental vocational expert testimony.
