Case No. 13-11453

Commissioners of Social Security,

Honorable Sean F. Cox

Defendant.
______________________________/
ORDER
ACCEPTING AND ADOPTING REPORT & RECOMMENDATION
Plaintiff brought this action challenging the Commissioner’s decision denying Plaintiff’s
application for Disability Insurance Benefits. Thereafter, the matter was referred to Magistrate
Judge Steven Whalen for determination of all non-dispositive motions pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §
636(b)(1) and Report and Recommendation pursuant to § 636(b)(1)(B) and (C).
Thereafter, the parties filed cross-motions for summary judgment. In a Report and
Recommendation (“R&R”) issued on May 19, 2014, Magistrate Judge Whalen recommended
that this Court: 1) Deny Plaintiff’s Motion for Summary Judgment; and 2) Grant the
Commissioner’s Motion for Summary Judgment, affirming the findings and conclusions of the
Commissioner.
Pursuant to FED. R. CIV. P. 72(b), a party objecting to the recommended disposition of a
matter by a Magistrate Judge must filed objections to the R&R within fourteen (14) days after
being served with a copy of the R&R. “The district judge to whom the case is assigned shall
make a de novo determination upon the record, or after additional evidence, of any portion of the
1

magistrate judge’s disposition to which specific written objection has been made.” Id.
The time for filing objections to the R&R has expired and the docket reflects that neither
party has filed objections to the R&R.
The Court hereby ADOPTS the May 19, 2014, R&R. IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiff’s
Motion for Summary Judgment is DENIED.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Commissioner’s Motion for Summary Judgment is
GRANTED and that the Commissioner’s findings and conclusions are AFFIRMED.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
