ALICIA BOATRIGHT, Plaintiff, CIVIL ACTION NO.: CV508-007 MICHAEL J. ASTRUE, Commissioner of Social Security, Defendant. ORDER Presently before the Court are Plaintiff's Objections to the Magistrate Judge's Report, wherein he recommended that the decision of the Commissioner of the Social Security Administration be affirmed. Plaintiff was sent a copy of the Magistrate Judge's February 23, 2009, Report, along with an order that advised Plaintiff that timely objections should be submitted on or before March 13, 2009. (Doc. No. 22). Plaintiffs Objections were filed on March 17, 2009. (Doc. No. 23). When a party makes a timely and specific objection to a portion 01 a magistrate judge's report and recommendation, the district court is obliged to engage in a de novo review 01 the issues raised on objection. Nettles v. Wainwright, 677 F. 2d 404, 406 (5th Cir. Unit B 1982). However, issues upon which no timely and specific objections are raised do not require de novo review. The district court may accept, reject,

modify, in
whole or in part, the findings or recommendations made by the magistrate judge, applying a clearly erroneous standard. Tauber v. Barnhart, 438 F. Supp. 2d 1366, 1373
AO 72A (Rev. 8/82)
(1 lth Cir. 2006) (citip Nettles, 677 F. 2d at 409). An error is clearly erroneous if, after viewing all the evidence, the court is left with the definite and firm conviction that a mistake has been committed. Tauber, 438 F. Supp. 2d at 1374 (citinq HGI Assoc., Inc. v. Wetmore Printing Co., 427 F. 3d 867, 873 (1 lth Cir. 2005)).
