DECISION and ORDER
Plaintiff filed this action in April 2008, seeking judicial review of a final decision of the Commissioner of Social Security ("Commissioner") denying his application for disability insurance benefits ("DIB") and Supplemental Security Income ("SSI"). By Report-Recommendation dated November 6, 2009, the Honorable David E.

No objections have been filed.
Based upon a careful review of the entire file and the recommendations of Magistrate Judge Peebles, the Report-Recommendation is accepted and adopted in whole. See 28 U.S.C. 636(b)(1). Accordingly, it is
ORDERED that
1. The plaintiff's motion for judgment on the pleadings is GRANTED;
2. The Commissioner's determination of no disability is VACATED; and
3. This matter is REMANDED to the Agency for further proceedings in accordance with the Report-Recommendation.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
