CIVIL ACTION NO. 1:17-01218
NANCY A. BERRYHILL,
ACTING COMMISSIONER OF
SOCIAL SECURITY,
Defendant.
MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
By Standing Order, this matter was referred to United
States Magistrate Judge Omar J. Aboulhosn for submission of
proposed findings and recommendations (“PF&R”) for disposition
pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B).
See Doc. No. 4.
Magistrate Judge Aboulhosn submitted to the court his PF&R
on July 21, 2017, in which he recommended that the Court deny
the Claimant’s Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings, see Doc.
No. 16.), grant the Defendant’s request to affirm the decision
of the Commissioner, see Doc. No. 18, affirm the final decision
of the Commissioner, and dismiss this action from the court’s
active docket.
In accordance with 28 U.S.C. § 636(b), the parties were
allotted seventeen days in which to file any objections to
Magistrate Judge Aboulhosn’s PF&R.
The failure of any party to
file such objections within the time allotted constitutes a
waiver of such party’s right to a de novo review by this court.
Snyder v. Ridenour, 889 F.2d 1363 (4th Cir. 1989).
Neither
party filed any objections to the Magistrate Judge’s PF&R within
the required time period.
Accordingly, the court adopts Magistrate Judge Aboulhosn’s
PF&R as follows:
1) The Claimant’s Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings, see
Doc. No. 16, is DENIED;
2) The Defendant’s request to affirm the decision of the
Commissioner, see Doc. No. 18, is GRANTED;
3) The final decision of the Commissioner is AFFIRMED; and
4) This action is DISMISSED from the court’s active docket.
The Clerk is further directed to forward a copy of this
Memorandum Opinion and Order to counsel of record.
It is SO ORDERED this 30th day of August, 2017.
