CASE NO. 1:18-CV-1356
JUDGE SARA LIOI
ORDER

Before the Court is the report and recommendation of Magistrate Judge David A. Ruiz,
recommending that this Court affirm the Commissioner’s decision denying plaintiff Jennifer L.
Johnson’s applications for a period of disability, disability insurance benefits, and supplemental
security income. (Doc. No. 15.)
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 fourteen-day period has elapsed, and no objections have been filed nor has any extension
of time been sought. The failure to file written objections to a magistrate judge’s report and
recommendation 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).
The Court has reviewed the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation and accepts and
adopts the same. Accordingly, the Court affirms the decision of the Commissioner and dismisses
plaintiff’s case in its entirety.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: July 1, 2019
