Case No. 14-1363

ORDER
On February 9, 2016, a Report & Recommendation was filed by Magistrate Judge
Jonathan Hawley in the above captioned case. More than fourteen (14) days have elapsed since
the filing of the Report & Recommendation, and no objections have been made. See 28 U.S.C.
§ 636(b)(1); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b); Lockert v. Faulkner, 843 F.2d 1015 (7th Cir. 1988); and Video
Views, Inc. v. Studio 21, Ltd., 797 F.2d 538, 539 (7th Cir. 1986). As the parties failed to present
timely objections, any such objections have been waived. Id.
The relevant procedural history is sufficiently set forth in the comprehensive Report &
Recommendation of the Magistrate Judge. Plaintiff claims 1) the Appeals Council erred by
failing to remand his case for consideration of new and material evidence from a physician; 2)
the ALJ erred on her selective consideration of the medical evidence and failing to build a logical
bridge from the evidence to her conclusions; and 3) the ALJ’s credibility determination was not
supported by substantial evidence. The Court concurs with the Magistrate Judge’s detailed
discussion and recommendation.
Accordingly, the Court now adopts the Report & Recommendation [23] of the Magistrate
Judge in its entirety. Defendant’s Motion for Summary Affirmance [19] is GRANTED and

Plaintiff’s Motion [13] for Summary Judgment or Remand is DENIED. This case is now
terminated.
ENTERED this 4th day of March, 2016.
