CASE NO. 14-CV-12449
HONORABLE GEORGE CARAM STEEH

v.
COMMISSIONER OF
SOCIAL SECURITY,
Defendant.
/

ORDER ACCEPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE’S REPORT AND
RECOMMENDATION (DOC. #20) DENYING PLAINTIFF’S
MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT (DOC. #17) AND GRANTING
DEFENDANT’S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT (DOC. #18)
Before the court are the parties’ cross motions for summary judgment, which were
referred to the magistrate judge for a report and recommendation. On June 17, 2015,
Magistrate Judge Mona Majzoub issued her report, recommending that the court deny
plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment and grant defendant’s motion for summary
judgment.
The magistrate judge specifically stated that any objections to her report were to be
filed within 14 days of service, and that failure to file such objections constituted a waiver
of any further right to appeal. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 155 (1985). No such
objections were filed by either party.
The court has reviewed the record and briefing in this matter, as well as the
magistrate judge’s report and recommendation. Finding that report and recommendation
to be well-reasoned, the court hereby adopts the result recommended therein.

motion for summary judgment (Doc. #18) is GRANTED. This case is DISMISSED.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
