Case No. 4:13-cv-00008
ORDER
By: Hon. Jackson L. Kiser
Senior United States District Judge

Before me is the Report and Recommendation (“R & R”) of the United States Magistrate
Judge recommending that I 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 [ECF No. 22]. The R & R was filed on May 5, 2014, and Plaintiff Carla Sue Chestnut
(“Plaintiff”) filed a timely Objection on May 19, 2014 [ECF No. 23]. 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). After careful review and consideration, and for the reasons
stated in the accompanying Memorandum Opinion, I hereby OVERRULE Plaintiff’s Objection,
ADOPT the R & R of the Honorable Joel C. Hoppe, DENY Plaintiff’s Motion for Summary
Judgment [ECF No. 14], GRANT the Commissioner’s Motion for Summary Judgment [ECF
No. 17], and DISMISS this case from the active docket of the Court.
The Clerk is directed to send a copy of this Order and the accompanying Memorandum
Opinion to all counsel of record as well as to Magistrate Judge Hoppe.
ENTERED this 30th day of June, 2014.
