CONNIE CROUSE, Plaintiff, v. COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL, SECURITY Defendant.
JUDGE JOHN R. ADAMS
MEMORANDUM OF OPINION
AND ORDER
Plaintiff Connie Crouse sought judicial review of the Commissioner's decision denying her application for disability insurance benefits and supplemental security income. This Court referred the case to Magistrate Judge William H. Baughman, Jr. for preparation of a report and recommendation pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636 and Local Rules 72.2(b)(1). The Magistrate Judge submitted a report and recommendation (Doc. 27) recommending that the Court AFFIRM the Commissioner's decision.
Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(2) provides that the parties may object to a report and recommendation within fourteen (14) days after service. No objections have been filed within the 14-day period. Any further review by this Court would be a duplicative and inefficient use of the Court's limited resources. Thomas v. Arn, 728 F.2d 813 (6th Cir. 1984); Howard v. Sec'y of Health and Human Servs., 932 F.2d 505 (6th Cir. 1991); United States v. Walters, 638 F.2d 947, 949-50 (6th Cir. 1981).
Accordingly, the report and recommendation of the Magistrate Judge is hereby adopted. The Commissioner's decision is AFFIRMED. The Court certifies, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(a)(3), that an appeal from this decision could not be taken in good faith.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
