UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN SOUTHERN DIVISION MICHAEL THOMAS McCLURE, Plaintiff, CASE NO: 16-CV-10109-DT v. CAROLYN W. COLVIN, Defendant. / ORDER ADOPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE’S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION This matter was referred to United States Magistrate Judge R. Steven Whalen pursuant to U.S.C. §636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 72.1. In his report filed on February 6, 2017, the magistrate judge recommended that this court deny Defendant Carolyn W. Colvin’s Motion for Summary Judgment and grant Plaintiff Michael Thomas McClure’s Motion for Summary Judgment, to the extent that the case is remanded for further administrative proceedings. No objections have been filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C), thus further appeal rights are waived.1 Having reviewed the file and the report, the court concludes that the findings and conclusions of the magistrate judge are correct and ADOPTS the same for purposes of this Order. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that, for the reasons set forth in the Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation, Defendant’s Motion for Summary Judgment {Dkt #14} is DENIED, and Plaintiff’s Motion for Summary Judgment {Dkt #10] is GRANTED. 1 The failure to object to the magistrate judge’s report releases the court from its duty to independently review the motion. Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985). IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that this case is remanded for further administrative proceedings. SO ORDERED. Dated: March 7, 2017 s/Robert H. Cleland ROBERT H.
