Case No. 4:14CV1012 AGF-SPM

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
Currently before the Court is the Report and Recommendation of United States
Magistrate Judge Shirley P. Mensah, to whom this matter was referred for recommended
disposition pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b). On July 31, 2015, Magistrate Judge Mensah
filed her Report and Recommendation, recommending that the Court reverse the decision
of the Commissioner of Social Security to deny Plaintiff Kathleen M. Fink disability
insurance benefits under Title II of the Social Security Act, 42 U.S.C. §§ 401 et seq., and
remand this case for further proceedings. Neither party has filed objections to the Report
and Recommendation and the time to do so has passed.
Upon careful consideration of the Report and Recommendation and the record in
this case, the Court concurs with the recommendation of the Magistrate Judge that the
Commissioner’s decision in this matter should be reversed, and the matter remanded.
Accordingly,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation of the United
States Magistrate Judge is SUSTAINED, ADOPTED, and INCORPORATED herein,
and the decision of the Commissioner in this case is REVERSED. This case is hereby
REMANDED, pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 405(g), for further proceedings consistent with
this Memorandum and Order.
A separate Judgment shall accompany this Memorandum and Order.
