Joel Arthur Schluter, Plaintiff, v. Commissioner of Social Security Administration, Defendant.
ORDER
On March 10, 2020, Magistrate Judge Jacqueline Rateau issued a Report and Recommendation (Doc. 19) recommending that this Court remand this action to the Commissioner of Social Security for further proceedings. No objections to the Report and Recommendation were filed.
A district judge must "make a de novo determination of those portions" of a magistrate judge's "report or specified proposed findings or recommendations to which objection is made." 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). The advisory committee's notes to Rule 72(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure state that, "[w]hen no timely objection is filed, the court need only satisfy itself that there is no clear error on the face of the record in order to accept the recommendation" of a magistrate judge. Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b) advisory committee's note to 1983 addition. See also Johnson v. Zema Sys. Corp., 170 F.3d 734, 739 (7th Cir. 1999) ("If no objection or only partial objection is made, the district court judge reviews those unobjected portions for clear error."); Prior v. Ryan, CV 10-225-TUC-RCC, 2012 WL 1344286, at *1 (D. Ariz. Apr. 18, 2012) (reviewing for clear error unobjected-to portions of Report and Recommendation).
The Court has reviewed Judge Jacqueline Rateau's Report and Recommendation, the parties' briefs, and the record. The Court finds no error in Judge Jacqueline Rateau's Report and Recommendation.
Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED that the Report and Recommendation (Doc. 19) is accepted and adopted in full.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that this matter is remanded to the Commissioner of Social Security for further proceedings consistent with this opinion and Judge Rateau's Report and Recommendation (Doc. 19). The Clerk of Court is directed to enter judgment accordingly and close this case.
Dated this 31st day of March, 2020.
