CIVIL ACTION NO. H-12-2402
ORDER ADOPTING MEMORANDUM AND RECOMMENDATION AND GRANTING
MOTION TO DISMISS
The proper defendant in this case is Michael J. Astrue, Commissioner of the Social Security
Administration. This court has reviewed the Memorandum and Recommendation issued by
Magistrate Judge Milloy on November 13, 2012, granting the defendant’s motion to dismiss for
failure to exhaust, and made a de novo determination. Rule 72(b), Fed. R. Civ. P.; 28 U.S.C. §
636(b)(1)(C); United States v. Wilson, 864 F.2d 1219 (5th Cir. 1989). Based on the pleadings, the
record, and the applicable law, this court adopts the Memorandum and Recommendation as this
court’s Memorandum and Order. This court finds and concludes that the plaintiff has failed to
exhaust her administrative remedies and that a waiver of the exhaustion requirement is not justified.
This action is dismissed, with prejudice.
This is a final judgment.
SIGNED on December 5, 2012, at Houston, Texas.
