The Appeals Council will instruct the ALJ to take further action, as warranted, to complete the administrative record and resolve the above issues.
The parties further request that the Clerk of the Court be directed to enter a final judgment in favor of Plaintiff, and against Defendant, reversing the final decision of the Commissioner.
