CASE NO. 1:16-cv-877
JUDGE SARA LIOI
MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before the Court is the report and recommendation of Magistrate Judge George Limbert,
recommending that the decision of the Commissioner of Social Security (“Commissioner”) denying
the application of plaintiff Doreen Henderson (“plaintiff”) for Supplemental Security Income and
Disability Insurance Benefits, be affirmed. (Doc. No. 18 (Report and Recommendation [“R&R”]).)
Under the relevant statute:
Within fourteen days after being served with a copy, any party may serve and file
written objections to such proposed findings and recommendations as provided by
rules of court. A judge of the court shall make a de novo determination of those
portions of the report or specified proposed findings or recommendations to which
objection is made.
28 U.S.C. ' 636(b)(1)(C).
The failure to file written objections to the report and recommendation of a magistrate judge
constitutes a waiver of a de novo determination by the district court of an issue covered in the report.
Thomas v. Arn, 728 F.2d 813 (6th Cir. 1984), aff’d, 474 U.S. 140 (1985); see United States v.

Walters, 638 F.2d 947 (6th Cir. 1981). Plaintiff is represented by counsel. The time period for filing
objections has passed and no objections to the R&R have been filed.
The Court has reviewed Magistrate Judge Limbert’s report and recommendation and adopts
the same. Accordingly, the final decision of the Commissioner denying plaintiff’s application for
Supplemental Security Income, and Disability Insurance Benefits, is affirmed.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
