ROBERT ALLEN COOPER, Plaintiff, v. KILOLO KIJAKAZI, Acting Commissioner of Social Security, Defendant.


ORDER

THOMAS A. VARLAN, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE

This civil matter is before the Court on the Report and Recommendation (the “R&R”) entered by Chief United States Magistrate Judge Susan K. Lee on July 13, 2023 [Doc. 26]. In the R&R, Judge Lee recommends that Plaintiff's Motion for Summary Judgment [Doc. 19] be denied, defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment [Doc. 24] be granted, and the decision of the Commissioner of Social Security (“Commissioner”) be affirmed. There have been no timely objections to the R&R, and enough time has passed since the filing of the R&R to treat any objections as having been waived. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Fed.R.Civ.P. 72.

After a careful review of the matter, the Court agrees with Judge Lee's recommendations. Accordingly, the Court ACCEPTS and ADOPTS the R&R in whole [Doc. 26]. Plaintiff's Motion for Summary Judgment [Doc. 19] is DENIED, and defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment [Doc. 24] is GRANTED. The decision of the Commissioner is AFFIRMED, and this civil action is DISMISSED. The Clerk is DIRECTED to CLOSE this case.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
