Case No. CIV-14-0399-F

ORDER
Plaintiff brings this action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 405(g), seeking judicial
review of Defendant Commissioner’s final decision denying plaintiff’s application for
disability insurance benefits under the Social Security Act.

The Report and

Recommendation of Magistrate Judge Suzanne Mitchell, doc. no. 22, recommends
affirming the decision of the Commissioner denying benefits. Plaintiff objects to the
Report, and his objections are reviewed de novo. Doc. no. 23. See, 28 U.S.C.
§ 636(b)(1) (court makes a de novo determination of those portions of the report to
which objection is made). The Commissioner has filed a reply brief. Doc. no. 24.
Having carefully considered plaintiff’s objections, the court finds that it agrees
with the Magistrate Judge’s analysis and conclusions, that no purpose would be served
by setting out further analysis here, and that the Report should be adopted.

The Report and Recommendation of Magistrate Judge Mitchell is
ACCEPTED, ADOPTED and AFFIRMED. The decision of the Commissioner of
the Social Security Administration denying benefits is AFFIRMED.
Dated this 10th day of August, 2015.
