UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
SOUTHERN DIVISION

SHEILA ROMINE,
Case No. 18-10503
Plaintiff,
Honorable Nancy G. Edmund
v.
COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY,
Defendant.
/

ORDER AND OPINION ACCEPTING THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE’S AUGUST 16,
2018 REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION [13]
Currently before the Court is the magistrate judge’s August 16, 2018 report and
recommendation [13] on cross-motions for summary judgment. The Court is fully advised
in the premises and has reviewed the record and the pleadings. Neither party has filed
objections. “[T]he failure to object to the magistrate judge’s report[] releases the Court from
its duty to independently review the matter.” Hall v. Rawal, 09-10933, 2012 WL 3639070,
at *1 (E.D.Mich. Aug. 24, 2012) (citation omitted). The Court nevertheless agrees with the
magistrate judge’s recommendation. The Court therefore ACCEPTS and ADOPTS the
magistrate judge’s report and recommendation.
It is further ordered that Defendant Commissioner's Motion for Summary Judgment
[12] is GRANTED and Plaintiff Romine's Motion for Summary Judgment [11] is DENIED,
and the Administrative Law Judge's decision is AFFIRMED.

SO ORDERED.
