UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
SOUTHERN DIVISION

Lauren A. Williams, on behalf of
her minor son, J.M.M.,
Plaintiff,
v.

Case No. 17-12964

Commissioner of Social Security,

Sean F. Cox
United States District Court Judge

Defendant.
______________________________/
ORDER ADOPTING
8/20/17 REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
Plaintiff filed this action under 42 U.S.C. § 405(g), seeking judicial review of Defendant
Commissioner’s determination that her minor son is not entitled to social security benefits. The
matter was referred to Magistrate Judge Mona Majzoub 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 20, 2018, Magistrate Judge Majzoub issued a Report and Recommendation
(“R&R”) (Docket Entry No. 13) 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 20, 2018 R&R.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiff’s Motion for Summary Judgment is DENIED,
Defendant’s Motion for Summary Judgment is GRANTED, and the Commissioner’s decision is
AFFIRMED.
IT IS SO ORDERED.

September 6, 2018, by electronic and/or ordinary mail.
