ORDER

COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL
SECURITY,
Defendant.

17
18

Plaintiff seeks judicial review of a final decision of the Commissioner of Social Security

19

(“Commissioner”) denying an application for Supplemental Security Income (“SSI”) under Title

20

XVI of the Social Security Act (“Act”). On February 14, 2025, the magistrate judge filed

21

findings and recommendations which contained notice to the parties that any objections to the

22

findings and recommendations were to be filed within fourteen (14) days. The deadline has

23

passed, and neither party has filed objections.

24

The Court presumes that any findings of fact are correct. See Orand v. United States, 602

25

F.2d 207, 208 (9th Cir. 1979). The magistrate judge’s conclusions of law are reviewed de novo.

26

See Robbins v. Carey, 481 F.3d 1143, 1147 (9th Cir. 2007) (“[D]eterminations of law by the

27

magistrate judge are reviewed de novo by both the district court and [the appellate] court[.]”).

28

Having reviewed the file, the Court finds the findings and recommendations to be supported by
1

1

the record and by the proper analysis.

2

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED:

3

1. The February 14, 2025, findings and recommendations are ADOPTED in full;

4

2. Plaintiff’s Motion for Summary Judgment (ECF No. 11) is GRANTED;

5

3. The Commissioner’s Cross-Motion for Summary Judgment (ECF No. 15) is DENIED;

6

4. Judgment is entered for Plaintiff; and

7

5. This matter is REMANDED for further administrative proceedings consistent with

8

this order.
