UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
MIDDLE DISTRICT OF FLORIDA
ORLANDO DIVISION
EDWARD TORRES,
Plaintiff,
v.

Case No. 6:15-cv-1911-Orl-37DCI

COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL
SECURITY,
Defendant.
ORDER
This cause is before the Court on Magistrate Judge Daniel C. Irick’s Report and
Recommendation (Doc. 20), filed January 12, 2017.
Plaintiff Edward Torres initiated this action for review of a final decision of the
Commissioner of Social Security (“Commissioner”) concerning Plaintiff’s claim for
disability benefits. (See Doc. 1.) The matter was referred to U.S. Magistrate Judge Daniel
C. Irick, who issued a Report and Recommendation (“Report”), which advised the Court
to reverse and remand the Commissioner’s decision. (Doc. 20.) The January 30, 2017
deadline to file any objections to the Report has passed, see 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1), and
no objections were filed. Absent objections, and upon consideration, the Court finds that
Magistrate Judge Irick’s thorough and well-reasoned Report is due to be adopted and
confirmed.
CONCLUSION
Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED AND ADJUDGED:
1.

Magistrate Judge Daniel C. Irick’s Report and Recommendation (Doc. 20)
is ADOPTED and CONFIRMED and made a part of this Order.

2.

The final decision of the Commissioner of Social Security is REVERSED
AND THE MATTER IS REMANDED TO THE COMMISSIONER OF
SOCIAL SECURITY.

3.

The Clerk is DIRECTED to enter Judgment for the Plaintiff and to CLOSE
this case.

DONE AND ORDERED in Chambers in Orlando, Florida, on February 17, 2017.
