Cox United States District Court Judge Defendant. ______________________________/ ORDER ADOPTING 8/17/17 REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION Plaintiff filed this action seeking judicial review of Defendant Commissioner of Social Security’s denial of her application for disability insurance benefits and supplemental security income benefits under the Social Security Act. The matter was referred to Magistrate Judge Elizabeth Stafford 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 motions for summary judgment. On August 17, 2017, Magistrate Judge Stafford issued a Report and Recommendation (“R&R”) (Docket Entry No. 21) wherein she recommends that the Court deny Plaintiff’s Motion for Summary Judgment, grant Defendant’s Motion for Summary Judgment, and affirm the Commissioner’s decision. 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 1 make a de novo determination upon the record, or after additional evidence, of any portion of the 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 August 17, 2017, R&R.
