Case No. 19-CV-13587
02-18-2021
ORDER ACCEPTING R&R [ECF No. 17] , DENYING PLAINTIFF'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT [ECF No. 14] AND GRANTING DEFENDANT'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT [ECF No. 16]
Plaintiff Shayla Tabitha McAllister brought this action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 405(g), challenging the final decision of defendant Commissioner of Social Security denying her application for supplemental security income under the Social Security Act. Both parties filed summary judgment motions (ECF No. 14; ECF No. 16) that were referred to the Magistrate Judge for Report and Recommendation ("R&R"). The Magistrate Judge issued her R&R on February 1, 2021, recommending that plaintiff's motion be denied, defendant's motion be granted and the ALJ's decision be affirmed under sentence four of 42 U.S.C. § 405(g).
No timely objections were filed to the R&R. The court has reviewed the file, record, and magistrate judge's R&R. This court agrees with the analysis conducted by the Magistrate Judge, and therefore accepts her recommendation. Now, therefore,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff's motion for summary judgment [ECF No. 14] is DENIED.
IT IS HEREBY FURTHER ORDERED that defendant's motion for summary judgment [ECF No. 16] is GRANTED.
IT IS HEREBY FURTHER ORDERED that judgment enter for defendant. Dated: February 18, 2021
