FRANK D. WHITNEY, District Judge.
This matter is before the Court on Defendant's Motion for Remand to the Commissioner for further administrative proceedings (Doc. No. 12). The Commissioner wishes to conduct further fact finding, including holding a new hearing. Plaintiff's counsel consents to the Motion for Remand.

The Court hereby reverses the Commissioner's decision under sentence four of 42 U.S.C. § 405(g) and remands the case to the Commissioner for further proceedings, including a new hearing.
