The Court has reviewed the R&R and concludes that the Magistrate Judge has reached the proper conclusion for the proper reasons. Therefore, the R&R is accepted and adopted as the findings and conclusions of the Court. Accordingly, Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment (Dkt. 13) is granted and Defendant's motion for summary judgment (Dkt. 18) is denied, so that pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 405(g), the decision of the Commissioner of Social Security is remanded.
