UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN
SOUTHERN DIVISION
DEWEY ALLEN PLUMLEY,
Case No. 18-11531
Plaintiff,
v.

Honorable Nancy G. Edmunds

COMMISSIONER OF
SOCIAL SECURITY,
Defendant.
/
ORDER AND OPINION ACCEPTING THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE’S NOVEMBER 11,
2018 REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION [5]
Currently before the Court is the magistrate judge’s November 11, 2018 report and
recommendation (ECF No. 5). The magistrate judge recommends that the Court dismiss
Plaintiff’s complaint in its entirety because Plaintiff failed to pay the required filing fee.
The Court is fully advised in the premises and has reviewed the record and the pleadings.
Neither party filed objections to the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation. “[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. Accordingly, it is ordered that Plaintiff's
complaint is hereby DISMISSED.
