Opinion
Case No. 18-21584-Civ-COOKE/GOODMAN
12-03-2020
RICARDO BLANCO, Plaintiff, v. ANDREW M. SAUL, Commissioner of Social Security, Defendant.
ORDER ADOPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
THIS MATTER is before me upon the Report and Recommendation ("R&R") of the Honorable Jonathan Goodman, U.S. Magistrate Judge (ECF No. 31), regarding Plaintiff's Motion for Attorney's Fees (ECF No. 27).
In his R&R, Judge Goodman recommends that I grant Plaintiff's petition and award Plaintiff $7,648.59 in attorney's fees. ECF No. 31 at 1. The parties have not filed Objections to the R&R, and the time to do so has passed.
I have reviewed Plaintiff's Motion, the briefing and accompanying exhibits, Defendant's Opposition, Judge Goodman's R&R, the record, and the relevant legal authorities. Having done so, I find Judge Goodman's R&R to be clear, cogent, and compelling.
Accordingly, Judge Goodman's R&R (ECF No. 31) is AFFIRMED and ADOPTED as the Order of this Court. Plaintiff's Motion is GRANTED, and Plaintiff is awarded $7,648.59 in attorney's fees as set forth in the R&R.
DONE and ORDERED in chambers, at Miami, Florida, this 3rd day of December 2020.
