ORDER
By: Hon. Jackson L. Kiser
Senior United States District Judge

Before me is the Report and Recommendation (“R & R”) of the Honorable B. Waugh
Crigler, recommending that I deny Plaintiff’s Motion for Summary Judgment, grant the
Commissioner’s Motion for Summary Judgment, and dismiss this case from the docket of the
Court. [ECF No. 18.] The R & R was filed on September 27, 2013, and Plaintiff filed timely
Objections on October 11, 2013. [ECF No. 19.] The Commissioner offered no response within
the subsequent fourteen (14) day period, and the matter is now ripe for review. See Fed. R. Civ.
P. 72(b)(2).
For the reasons stated in the accompanying Memorandum Opinion, I hereby
OVERRULE Plaintiff’s Objections, ADOPT Judge Crigler’s R & R, DENY Plaintiff’s Motion
for Summary Judgment, GRANT the Commissioner’s Motion for Summary Judgment, and
DISMISS this case from the active docket of the Court.
The Clerk is directed to send a copy of this Order and accompanying Memorandum
Opinion to all counsel of record as well as to Magistrate Judge Crigler.
ENTERED this 15th day of November, 2013.
