entitled action. (Doc. No. 16.) 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

portions of the report or specified proposed findings or recommendations to which
objection is made. [. . .]

On December 1, 2017, defendant filed a response indicating that there would be no
objection to the recommendation of the magistrate judge that the final decision be vacated and the
case remanded because the Administrative Law Judge failed to comply with the requirements of
the Social Security regulations for weighing medical source evidence.
No objections having been heard, the Court adopts the recommendation, vacates the
decision of the Acting Commissioner of Social Security, and remands this matter for further
proceedings.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
