Case Number 13-50545

MARY ALBRECHT, Petitioner, v. SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION OFFICE OF THE INSPECTOR GENERAL, Respondent.
Honorable David M. Lawson
Magistrate Judge Mona K. Majzoub
ORDER ADOPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION,
DENYING PLAINTIFF'S MOTION TO ENJOIN RESPONDENT FROM OBTAINING
HER FINANCIAL RECORDS, AND DISMISSING COMPLAINT
Presently before the Court is the report issued on August 8, 2013 by Magistrate Judge Mona K. Majzoub pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b), recommending that the Court deny the plaintiff's motion to enjoin respondent from obtaining her financial records and to dismiss the matter in its entirety. Although the report stated that the parties to this action could object to and seek review of the recommendation within fourteen days of service of the report, no objections have been filed thus far. The parties' failure to file objections to the report and recommendation waives any further right to appeal. Smith v. Detroit Fed'n of Teachers Local 231, 829 F.2d 1370, 1373 (6th Cir. 1987). Likewise, the failure to object to the magistrate judge's report releases the Court from its duty to independently review the matter. Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985). However, the Court agrees with the findings and conclusions of the magistrate judge.
Accordingly, it is ORDERED that the magistrate judge's report and recommendation [dkt. #9] is ADOPTED.
It is further ORDERED that the plaintiff's motion to enjoin respondent from obtaining her financial records is denied [dkt. #1] is DENIED.
It is further ORDERED that the complaint is DISMISSED without prejudice.
