Plaintiff,

Judge Matthew W. McFarland

vs.
COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL
SECURITY,

Defendant.

ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION (DOC. 16)

This action is before the Court upon the Report and Recommendation (the
"Report") (Doc. 46) of United States Magistrate Judge Karen L. Litkovitz, to whom this
case is referred pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b). In the Report, Magistrate Judge Litkovitz
recommends that the Court affirm the Commissioner's decision to deny Plaintiff's
application for child disability benefits. Plaintiff filed Objections (Doc. 17) to the Report,
in response to which the Commissioner filed a memorandum supporting the Magistrate
Judge's recommended disposition (Doc. 18).
As required by 28 U.S.C. § 636(b) and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 72(b), the
Court has made a de novo review of the record in this case. Upon said review, the Court
finds that Plaintiff's Objections are not well-taken and are accordingly OVERRULED.

cases in the Southern District of Ohio shall refer to claimants only by their first names and last initials."
See General Order 22-01.

The Commissioner's decision is AFFIRMED, and this case is TERMINATED from the
Court's docket.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
