MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
This matter is before me on a Report and Recommendation to affirm the decision of the
Commissioner of Social Security to deny Plaintiff Supplemental Security Income under Title
XVI of the Social Security Act. Neither of the parties has filed an objection to this
recommendation.
This matter was referred to United States Magistrate Judge Thomas C. Mummert for a
Report and Recommendation pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b). Judge Mummert issued a Report
and Recommendation on August 27, 2013 that recommended that the Commissioner’s decision
to deny benefits should be affirmed. Judge Mummert found that the Administrative Law Judge’s
determination that Plaintiff was not entitled to benefits was supported by substantial evidence in
the record.
Any objections to Judge Mummert’s Report and Recommendation had to be filed by
September 10, 2013. Neither of the parties has filed an objection as of today’s date.
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation of the United States
Magistrate Judge Mummert is SUSTAINED, ADOPTED AND INCORPORATED herein.
The Commissioner of Social Security’s decision to deny Supplemental Security Income benefits
to Plaintiff is affirmed.
