Case No. CIV-13-329-D

ORDER
Plaintiff brought this action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. §405(g) for review of the Defendant
Commissioner of the Social Security Administration’s final decision denying Plaintiff’s application
for benefits under the Social Security Act. The matter was referred to United States Magistrate
Judge Shon T. Erwin for initial proceedings in accordance with 28 U.S.C. §636 (b)(1)(B). The
parties fully briefed their respective positions and, on June 24, 2014, the Magistrate Judge filed his
Report and Recommendation [Doc. No. 18] in which he recommended that the Court affirm the
decision of the Commissioner.
In the Report and Recommendation, the Magistrate Judge advised the parties of the right to
file objections to the same and directed the parties to file any objections no later than July 8, 2014.
The Magistrate Judge further admonished the parties that failure to timely object would constitute
a waiver of the right to appeal. The deadline for filing objections has expired and to date, neither
party has filed objections or sought an extension of time in which to do so. Accordingly, the Report
and Recommendation [Doc. No. 18] is adopted as though fully set forth herein.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the decision of the Commissioner denying Plaintiff’s

application for benefits is AFFIRMED.
IT IS SO ORDERED this 15th day of July, 2014.
