LEONARD FOBERT, Plaintiff, v. MICHAEL J. ASTRUE, Commissioner of Social Security, Defendant.
ORDER
BROWN, Judge.
Magistrate Judge John Jelderks issued Findings and Recommendation (#12) on July 26, 2012, in which he recommends this Court reverse the Commissioner's decision denying Plaintiff's application for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits and remand this matter for an award of benefits. The matter is now before this Court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 72(b).
Because no objections to the Magistrate Judge's Findings and Recommendation were timely filed, this Court is relieved of its obligation to review the record de novo. United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114, 1121 (9th Cir. 2003) (en banc). See also United States v. Bernhardt, 840 F.2d 1441, 1444 (9th Cir. 1988). Having reviewed the legal principles de novo, the Court does not find any error.
CONCLUSION
The Court ADOPTS Magistrate Judge Jelderks's Findings and Recommendation (#12) . Accordingly, the Court REVERSES the Commissioner's decision to deny Plaintiff's application for SSI benefits and REMANDS this matter for the immediate calculation and award of benefits.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
