JOHN CAIN, Plaintiff, v. COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY, Defendant.
JUDGE DONALD C. NUGENT
MAGISTRATE JUDGE JAMES R.
KNEPP II
MEMORANDUM OPINION
This matter comes before the Court upon the Report and Recommendation of Magistrate Judge James R. Knepp II. The Report and Recommendation (ECF # 17), issued on May 27, 2014, is hereby ADOPTED by this Court. Plaintiff filed this action requesting judicial review of a final decision by the Commissioner of Social Security which denied him supplemental security income (SSI). The Magistrate Judge recommended that the Commissioner's decision be affirmed because the Plaintiff failed to meet his burden of proof in showing that he had a severe medical impairment which somehow inhibited his work performance. Walters v. Comm'r of Soc. Sec., 127 F.3d 525, 529 (6th Cir. 1997). No objections have been filed.
The Court has reviewed de novo the Report and Recommendation, see Ohio Citizen Action v. City of Seven Hills, 35 F. Supp. 2d 575, 577 (N.D. Ohio 1999), and ADOPTS the Report and Recommendation in its entirety. The decision of the ALJ is AFFIRMED.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
