TEXARKANA DIVISION

DERRICK YATES

vs.

PLAINTIFF

Civil No. 4:12-cv-4098

CAROLYN W. COLVIN
Commissioner, Social Security Administration

DEFENDANT

ORDER
Before the Court is the Report and Recommendation filed June 18, 2013 by the
Honorable Barry A. Bryant, United States Magistrate Judge for the Western District of Arkansas.
(ECF No. 10). This action involves an appeal of a decision by the Commissioner of the Social
Security Administration to deny Plaintiff certain disability benefits. Judge Bryant recommends
that the ALJ’s decision to deny Plaintiff such benefits be reversed and remanded because it is not
supported by substantial evidence. The parties have not filed objections to the Report and
Recommendation, and the time for doing so has passed. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). After
reviewing the record de novo, the Court finds that Judge Bryant’s Report and Recommendation
should be adopted in its entirety. Accordingly, the Court hereby adopts Judge Bryant’s Report
and Recommendation, and the ALJ’s decision is REVERSED AND REMANDED.
IT IS SO ORDERED, this 8th day of July, 2013.
