ORDER AFFIRMING RECOMMENDED DECISION
OF THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE
On August 3, 2016, the United States Magistrate Judge filed with the
court, with copies to counsel, his Report and Recommended Decision.

The

defendant filed an objection to the Recommended Decision on August 22, 2016.
Oral argument was held on October 5, 2016. I have reviewed and considered
the Recommended Decision, together with the entire record; I have made a de
novo determination of all matters adjudicated by the Recommended Decision;
and I concur with the recommendations of the United States Magistrate Judge
for the reasons set forth in the Recommended Decision, and determine that no
further proceeding is necessary.
It is therefore ORDERED that the Recommended Decision of the Magistrate
Judge is hereby ADOPTED. The Commissioner’s decision is VACATED and the case
is REMANDED for further proceedings consistent with the Recommended Decision.
SO ORDERED.
DATED THIS 6TH DAY OF OCTOBER, 2016
/S/D. BROCK HORNBY
D. BROCK HORNBY
UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
