ALISSA M. SNEED, Plaintiff, v. COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY, Defendant.
HON. ROBERT H. CLELAND
ORDER ADOPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
The case was referred to United States Magistrate Judge Laurie J. Michelson pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Local Rule 72.1. The magistrate judge issued her report on February 3, 2014 recommending that this court grant in part Plaintiff's Motion for Summary Judgment, deny Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment and that pursuant to sentence four of 42 U.S.C. § 405(g), the case be remanded for further proceedings. No objections have been filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §636(b)(1)(C); thus further appeal rights are waived.
The failure to object to the magistrate judge's report releases the court from its duty to independently review the motion. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140,149 (1985).
Having reviewed the file and the report, the court determines that the findings and conclusions of the magistrate judge are correct and ADOPTS the same for purposes of this order. Therefore,
ORDER
IT IS ORDERED that, for the reasons set forth in the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation, the Plaintiff's Motion for Summary Judgment is GRANTED IN PART, the Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment is DENIED and the case is REMANDED for further proceedings pursuant to Sentence four of 42 U.S.C. § 405(6).
