ORDER

Plaintiff, Frederick Brown, seeks judicial review of the administrative denial of his claims for social security disability and supplemental security income benefits. Doc. 2. The Commissioner has filed an Unopposed Motion to Reverse and Remand for further administrative proceedings, pursuant to the fourth sentence of 42 U.S.C. § 405(g). Doc. 13. The Motion states that Brown's counsel was contacted and has no objection to the requested remand. Under the circumstances, remand is appropriate.

Accordingly, the Commissioner's Unopposed Motion to Reverse and Remand, Doc. 14, is GRANTED. The Commissioner's prior decision is REVERSED and this matter is REMANDED for further administrative proceedings and issuance of a new decision. This is a "sentence four" remand within the meaning of 42 U.S.C. § 405(g) and Melkonyan v. Sullivan, 501 U.S. 89 (1991).

IT IS SO ORDERED.
