ORDER AFFIRMING RECOMMENDED DECISION
OF THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE
On January 31, 2018, the United States Magistrate Judge filed with the
court, and copies to the parties, his Recommended Decision. The Plaintiff filed
an objection to the Recommended Decision on February 14, 2018. I have
reviewed and considered the Recommended Decision and the Plaintiff’s
objection, 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. In addition, I note that the Plaintiff’s
objection raises new arguments not presented to the Magistrate Judge and as
so they are waived.
It is therefore ORDERED that the Recommended Decision of the
Magistrate Judge is hereby ADOPTED. It is further ORDERED that the
Commissioner’s decision is AFFIRMED.

United States Chief District Judge
Dated this 29th day of March, 2018.
