Everything in the letter seemed very positive, saying that the jusdge didn't give any weight to the medical evidece and opinions of my doctors. The appeals council ordered the judge to give that evidence weight and give a new decision. The thing is, there is no supporting evidence at all that I could work. I have been unemployed since my injury occured, October 2005.

Since the appeals council orders the judge to give resolution to the evidence. To me this sounds like exactly what I need. All three physicians have stated that I am not able to do even sedentary work. Doesnt this sound like I should have a good outlook for my last hearing? Are cases that get remanded back to an ALJ from the appeals council more likely to win than loose? Appreciate any info, comments or advice you can give. I would also be happy to answer any questions about my case if anyone has any.
