EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
SOUTHERN DIVISION

LE ANN CASTRO,
Plaintiff,
v.

Case No. 12-12822
Honorable Julian Abele Cook, Jr.

COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY,
Defendant.

ORDER
This case involves a complaint by the Plaintiff, Le Ann Castro, who, in relying upon the
authority of 42 U.S.C. § 405(g), has asked this Court to review a final decision by the Defendant,
the Commissioner of the Social Security Administration (“Commissioner”). The parties thereafter
filed motions for summary judgment pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 56, both of which
were forwarded by the Court to Magistrate Judge Charles E. Binder for evaluation. In a report on
July 2, 2013, the Magistrate Judge recommended that this Court (1) deny the Commissioner’s
motion for summary judgment, (2) grant Castro’s motion for summary judgment, and (3) remand
for further proceedings pursuant to sentence four of 42 U.S.C. § 405(g). As of this date, neither
party has expressed any objections to the Magistrate Judge’s report and recommendation. The
period of time for filing objections having now expired, this Court adopts the report, including the
recommendations of the Magistrate Judge, in its entirety.
