EVA J. GREEN

v.

PLAINTIFF

Case No. 1:16-cv-1068

CAROLYN W. COLVIN
Commissioner, Social Security Administration

DEFENDANT

JUDGMENT
Before the Court is the Report and Recommendation filed December 14, 2017, by the
Honorable Barry A. Bryant, United States Magistrate Judge for the Western District of Arkansas.
(ECF No. 20). Judge Bryant recommends that the Court affirm the administrative law judge’s
(“ALJ”) decision denying Plaintiff Eva J. Green’s applications for Supplemental Security Income
and Disability Insurance Benefits under Titles II and XVI of the Social Security Act. 1
Plaintiff has not filed objections to the Report and Recommendation and the time to object
has passed. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). The Court has reviewed the case, and being well and
sufficiently advised, finds that the Report and Recommendation is proper and should be adopted
in its entirety. Therefore, the Court adopts the Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 29) in toto.
Accordingly, the ALJ’s decision denying benefits to Plaintiff is hereby AFFIRMED, and
Plaintiff’s complaint is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.
IT IS SO ORDERED, this 8th day of January, 2018.

Specifically, Judge Bryant states that the ALJ’s findings were supported by substantial evidence on the record as a
whole; that the ALJ did not fail to comply with the Court’s previous remand instructions; and that the ALJ did not err
in assessing Plaintiff’s credibility, her Residual Functional Capacity, and her ability to perform her Past Relevant
Work.
