Commissioner of Social Security, Sean F. Cox United States District Court Judge Defendant. ______________________________/ ORDER ADOPTING 12/22/20 REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION Plaintiff Elliott Claybrook filed this action seeking judicial review of Defendant Commissioner’s final decision denying his application for Title II Disability Insurance Benefits. The matter was referred to Magistrate Judge Patricia T. Morris for determination of all nondispositive motions under 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(A) and issuance of a report and recommendation pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and (C). Thereafter, the parties filed cross-motions for summary judgment. In a Report and Recommendation (“R&R”) issued on December 22, 2020, the magistrate judge recommends that the Court: 1) deny Plaintiff’s motion; 2) grant the Commissioner’s motion; and 3) affirm the ALJ’s decision. Pursuant to FED. R. CIV.
