RHONDA LYNN CHICORA, Plaintiff, v. COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY, Defendant.
ORDER ACCEPTING AND ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION (#15) , GRANTING DEFENDANT'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT (# 12) AND DENYING PLAINTIFF'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT (# 9) AND DISMISSING ACTION
This matter is before the court on the parties' Cross-Motions for Summary Judgment as to Plaintiff Rhonda Lynn Chicora's claim for judicial review of Defendant Commissioner of Social Security's denial of her application for disability insurance and supplemental security income benefits. The matter was referred to Magistrate Judge Anthony P. Patti, who issued a Report and Recommendation on August 8, 2016, recommending that the Court grant Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment, deny Plaintiff's Motion for Summary Judgment, and affirm the Commissioner's findings. Neither party has filed objections to the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation, and the time for filing objections has expired. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C).
Upon review of the parties' briefing and the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation, the Court concludes that the Magistrate Judge reached the correct conclusion. Therefore, the Court hereby ACCEPTS and ADOPTS Magistrate Judge Patti's August 8, 2016 Report and Recommendation [#15] as this Court's findings of fact and conclusions of law. Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment [#12] is GRANTED. Plaintiff's Motion for Summary Judgment [#9] is DENIED.
This cause of action is dismissed.
