ORDER
This matter is before this court for review of the
Memorandum Opinion and Recommendation (“Recommendation”) filed
on February 6, 2015, by the Magistrate Judge in accordance with
28 U.S.C. § 636(b).
(Doc. 16.)
In the Recommendation, the
Magistrate Judge recommends that the Commissioner’s decision
finding no disability be affirmed, that Plaintiff’s motion for
judgment on the pleadings (Doc. 10) be denied, that Defendant’s
motion for judgment on the pleadings (Doc. 13) be granted, and
that this action be dismissed with prejudice.
The
Recommendation was served on the parties to this action on
February 6, 2015 (Doc. 17).
Counsel for Plaintiff filed timely
objections (Doc. 18) to the Recommendation and counsel for the
Commissioner filed a response to the objections (Doc. 19).
This court is required to “make a de novo determination of
those portions of the [Magistrate Judge’s] report or specified
proposed findings or recommendations to which objection is made.”
28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1).
This court “may accept, reject, or
modify, in whole or in part, the findings or recommendations
made by the [M]agistrate [J]udge. . . . [O]r recommit the matter
to the [M]agistrate [J]udge with instructions.”
Id.
This court has appropriately reviewed the portions of the
Recommendation to which objection was made and has made a de
novo determination which is in accord with the Magistrate
Judge’s Recommendation.
This court therefore adopts the
Recommendation.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the Magistrate Judge’s
Recommendation (Doc. 16) is ADOPTED.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that
Plaintiff’s motion for judgment on the pleadings (Doc. 10) is
DENIED, that Defendant’s motion for judgment on the pleadings
(Doc. 13) is GRANTED, that the Commissioner’s decision is
AFFIRMED, and that this action be dismissed with prejudice.
A Judgment dismissing this action will be entered
contemporaneously with this Order.
