UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
MIDDLE DISTRICT OF FLORIDA
JACKSONVILLE DIVISION
JOANN FREDERICKA DINGLE,
Plaintiff,
v.
Case No. 3:18-cv-375-J-34PDB
NANCY A. BERRYHILL, Acting Commissioner
of the Social Security Administration,
Defendant.
ORDER
THIS CAUSE is before the Court on the Report and Recommendation (Doc. 17;
Report), entered by the Honorable Joel B. Toomey, United States Magistrate Judge, on
November 5, 2018.
In the Report, Magistrate Judge Toomey recommends that the
Commissioner’s decision be affirmed. See Report at 2, 6. No objections to the Report
have been filed, and the time for doing so has passed.
The Court “may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or
recommendations made by the magistrate judge.” 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). If no specific
objections to findings of fact are filed, the district court is not required to conduct a de novo
review of those findings. See Garvey v. Vaughn, 993 F.2d 776, 779 n.9 (11th Cir. 1993;
See also 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)).
However, the district court must review legal
conclusions de novo. See Cooper-Houston v. Southern Ry. Co., 37 F.3d 603, 604 (11th
Cir. 1994); United States v. Rice, No. 2:08-mc-8-FtM-29SPC, 2007 WL 1428615, at *1
(M.D. Fla. May 14, 2007).
Upon independent review of the Magistrate Judge’s Report, the Court will accept
and adopt the legal and factual conclusions recommended by the Magistrate Judge.
Accordingly, it is hereby
ORDERED:
1. The Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation (Doc. 17) is ADOPTED
as the opinion of the Court.
2. The Clerk of the Court is directed to enter judgment AFFIRMING the
Commissioner’s final decision and close the file.
DONE AND ORDERED in Jacksonville, Florida this 27th day of November, 2018.
