DECISION and ORDER
Pro se plaintiff Lindell Townsend-White brought this action against the Social
Security Administration pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On October 5, 2016, the Honorable
Christian F. Hummel, United States Magistrate Judge, advised by Report-Recommendation
that plaintiff's complaint be read as brought pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 405(g), and that the
complaint be dismissed without prejudice and that plaintiff be permitted to file an amended
complaint that demonstrates she exhausted her administrative remedies, or that there is a
sufficient excuse for her failure to exhaust. Plaintiff submitted timely objections to the
Report-Recommendation.

Based upon a de novo review of the portions of the Report-Recommendation to
which plaintiff objected, the Report-Recommendation is accepted in whole. See 28 U.S.C.
§ 636(b)(1).
Therefore, it is
ORDERED that
Plaintiff's complaint is DISMISSED without prejudice.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
