RAYMOND WILLARD,

No. 3:15-cv-7-PLR-CCS

MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
Before the Court is Magistrate Judge Shirley’s Report and Recommendation (“R&R”).
[D. 19]. There have been no objections to the R&R, and enough time has passed to treat any
objection as forfeited. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); FED. R. CIV. P. 72(b)(2).
After a careful review of the record, the Court agrees with the R&R and ADOPTS it with
respect to Willard’s peripheral-neuropathy argument raised in his motion for summary judgment.
The Court also adopts the previous R&R [D. 16] with respect to all other arguments raised in the
parties’ summary-judgment motions. For the reasons stated in those R&Rs, Willard’s motion for
summary judgment is DENIED and the Commissioner’s is GRANTED. This case is
DISMISSED with prejudice.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
