JASON ROBERT LEBLANC, Plaintiff, v. CAROLYN W. COLVIN, Acting Commissioner of Social Security Defendant.


ORDER ADOPTING THE RECOMMENDED DECISION OF THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE

The United States Magistrate Judge filed his Recommended Decision (ECF No. 15) with the court on September 30, 2014, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 72(b). The time within which to file objections expired on October 17, 2014, and no objections have been filed. The Magistrate Judge notified the parties that failure to object would waive their right to de novo review and appeal.

It is therefore ORDERED that the Recommended Decision of the Magistrate Judge is hereby ADOPTED. The Commissioner's final administrative decision is AFFIRMED.

SO ORDERED.

United States District Judge
Dated this 24th day of October, 2014.
