Case No. CIV-10-1072-F

ORDER
United States Magistrate Judge Valerie K. Couch issued a Report and
Recommendation on October 12, 2011, wherein she recommended that defendant’s
decision denying plaintiff’s application for supplemental security income benefits be
reversed and remanded for further administrative proceedings. Magistrate Judge
Couch advised the parties of their right to file specific written objections to the Report
and Recommendation on or before November 2, 2011 and that failure to make timely
objection waives the right to appellate review of the factual and legal issues therein
addressed.
To date, the court has not received any objection to the Report and
Recommendation. Likewise, it has not received any application for an extension of
time to file an objection. With no objection being filed within the time prescribed by
Magistrate Judge Couch, the court accepts, adopts and affirms the Report and
Recommendation in its entirety.
Accordingly, the Report and Recommendation issued by United States
Magistrate Judge Valerie K. Couch, on October 12, 2011 (doc. no. 15), is

ACCEPTED, ADOPTED and AFFIRMED. The decision of defendant, Michael J.
Astrue, Commissioner of the Social Security Administration, denying the application
of plaintiff, Teresa Powers, for supplemental security income benefits is REVERSED
and REMANDED for further administrative proceedings.
DATED November 4, 2011.
