MEMORANDUM ***

Terry Gilmore appeals the district court’s order reversing the Administrative Law Judge’s (“ALJ”) denial of disability benefits and remanding for further proceedings. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review for an abuse of discretion the district court’s decision to remand for further proceedings rather than for immediate payment of benefits, Harman v.
