No. 3:14-cv-01547

Magistrate Judge Bryant

ORDER
Plaintiff Pamela Mosby, who is proceeding pro se, filed this lawsuit appealing the denial
of her application for Social Security benefits. (Docket No. 1). Magistrate Judge Bryant has
issued a Report and Recommendation (“R & R”) (Docket No. 15) in which he recommends that
this case be dismissed for failure to comply with orders of the court. In the R & R, Magistrate
Judge Bryant explains that Plaintiff failed to comply with both an order to file a motion for
judgment on the administrative record, (Docket No. 12), and an order to show cause, (Docket
No. 14). Indeed, the record confirms that Plaintiff has taken no steps to prosecute her case since
filing her complaint. Despite being advised that any objection needed to be filed within fourteen
days, Plaintiff has filed none.
Having considered the matter de novo as required by Rule 72 of the Federal Rules of
Civil Procedure, the Court agrees with the recommended disposition. Accordingly, the Court
hereby rules as follows:
1) The Report and Recommendation (Docket No. 15) is ACCEPTED and APPROVED;
and
2) This case is DISMISSED.

The Clerk of the Court shall enter judgment in accordance with Rule 58 of the Federal
Rules of Civil Procedure.
It is SO ORDERED.
