Case No. 4:12CV02007 AGF/TCM
MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
Currently before the Court is the Report and Recommendation (R&R) of United
States Magistrate Judge Thomas C. Mummert, to whom this matter was referred for
recommended disposition pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b). Magistrate Judge Mummert
filed his R&R on January 21, 2014, recommending that the Court affirm the decision of
the Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) to deny Plaintiff Zachary Carlson’s request for
disability insurance benefits under Title II of the Social Security Act, 42 U.S.C. § 401433, and supplemental security income under Title XVI of the Social Security Act, 42
U.S.C. § 1381-1383b, and dismiss this action.
Neither party has filed objections to the R&R and the time to do so has expired.

Carolyn W. Colvin became the Acting Commissioner of Social Security on February
14, 2013. Pursuant to Rule 25(d) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, Carolyn W.
Colvin is substituted for Michael J. Astrue as the Defendant in this suit. No further action
needs to be taken to continue this suit by reason of the last sentence of section 205(g) of
the Social Security Act, 42 U.S.C. § 405(g).
Upon careful consideration of the R&R and the record in this case, the Court
sustains and adopts the R&R, and concurs with the recommendation of the Magistrate
Judge that the ALJ’s decision should be affirmed.
Accordingly,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation of the United
States Magistrate Judge is SUSTAINED, ADOPTED, and INCORPORATED herein.
(Doc. No. 23.)
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the decision of the Commissioner denying
Plaintiff’s application for disability insurance benefits under Title II of the Social
Security Act and supplemental security income under Title XVI of the Social Security
Act, is AFFIRMED.
A separate Judgment shall accompany this Memorandum and Order.
