ORDER
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 January 27, 2015, 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. The arguments raised in the Objection were fairly addressed and properly rejected in
the Report and Recommendation and Plaintiff raises nothing which would require a different
result.

Accordingly, the Court adopts, in its entirety, the Report and Recommendation of the
Magistrate Judge (Dkt. No. 13), 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 11th day of March, 2015.
