PLAINTIFF
CIVIL ACTION NO. 3:12CV427TSL-JMR

CAROLYN W. COLVIN, ACTING COMMISSIONER
OF SOCIAL SECURITY

DEFENDANT

ORDER
This cause is before the court on the objections of
plaintiff Jeffrey Pilgrim to the report and recommendation of
United States Magistrate Judge John M. Roper entered on January
22, 2014, recommending that the court grant defendant’s motion to
affirm the ALJ’s decision that plaintiff is not entitled to
social security benefits and deny plaintiff’s motion for summary
judgment which seeks reversal of the decision and an award of
benefits or, in the alternative, remand for further proceedings.
The court, having fully reviewed the report and recommendation
and being duly advised in the premises, now finds that the report
and recommendation is adopted over the objections of the
plaintiff as the opinion on the court.
A separate judgment will be entered in accordance with Rule
58 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.
SO ORDERED this 27th day of March, 2014.
