ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
This action for judicial review of the Commissioner’s denial of disability insurance
benefits was referred for initial proceedings to United States Magistrate Judge Gary M.
Purcell, consistent with 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B). Judge Purcell entered a Report and
Recommendation on October 24, 2013, recommending that the decision of the Commissioner
be affirmed. Plaintiff, through counsel, has timely filed an objection to this report, and the
Court therefore considers the matter de novo.
In his thorough and well-reasoned Report and Recommendation, Judge Purcell sets
out the relevant facts and prevailing law, and no purpose would be served to repeat those
here. In objection, Plaintiff merely restates the arguments originally asserted and previously
considered, and raises no issue not fully and accurately addressed and rejected by the
Magistrate Judge.
Accordingly, the Court adopts, in its entirety, the Report and Recommendation of the
Magistrate Judge, and for the reasons stated therein, the decision of the Commissioner in this
case is affirmed. A judgment will enter accordingly.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 25th day of November, 2013.
