My attorney filed her breif on December 12, 2014 and the AC remanded and vacated the ALJ decision on December 23, 2014. I'm being told no one has ever heard of this happening before. Is this good news? Also the original ALJ is no longer on the bench

It is very, very common and the decision is called "de novo". http://www.ssa.gov/OP_Home/hallex/I-02/I-2-8-18.html Or, was the surprise that the decision happened so quickly? Cases from that ALJ might go to the "top of the pile" perhaps? |

I have to admit, that was a quick turnaround.

This back and forth between the appeals council and ALJ reminds me of a favorite expression by someone called DP on a Russian forum, "send in the clowns"

The surprise was that it was remanded in 11 days. I'm being told that is unheard of

The remand means that the AC believes the ALJ made a legal error. Now, you'll have another shot before a new ALJ, and you can even get new documentation if needed before then. If you meet the requirements for a Listed Impairment, there is a chance you might even be approved via an OTR decision before being scheduled for a hearing. |
