Outcome
The court granted plaintiff's motion for remand, finding that the ALJ erred by accepting vocational expert testimony without adequate reliability review. The ALJ improperly relied on jobs requiring reasoning level 3 despite plaintiff's limitation to simple work, and failed to investigate conflicts between VE testimony and DOT descriptions.
