Opinion
CASE NO. 8:14-CIV-1650-T-EAK-AEP
08-27-2015
PATRICIA C. DOANE, Plaintiff, v. CAROLYN W. COLVIN, Acting Commissioner of Social Security, Defendant.
ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION
This cause is before the Court on the report and recommendation (R&R) issued by Magistrate Judge Anthony A. Porcelli on August 8, 2015 (Doc. 20). The magistrate judge recommended that the decision of the Commissioner be affirmed.
STANDARD OF REVIEW
When a party makes a timely and specific objection to a finding of fact in the report and recommendation, the district court should make a de novo review of the record with respect to that factual issue. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); U.S. v. Raddatz , 447 U.S. 667 (1980); Jeffrey S. v. State Board of Education of State of Georgia , 896 f.2d 507 (11th Cir. 1990). However, when no timely and specific objections are filed, case law indicates that the court should review the findings using a clearly erroneous standard. Gropp v. United Airlines , Inc., 817 F.Supp. 1558, 1562 (M.D. Fla. 1993). No timely objections were filed.
The Court has reviewed the report and recommendation and made an independent review of the record. Upon due consideration, the Court concurs with the report and recommendation. Accordingly, it is
ORDERED that the report and recommendation (Doc. 20) be adopted and incorporated by reference; the decision of the Commissioner be affirmed; and the Clerk of Court is directed enter judgment for the defendant and against the plaintiff and to close this case.
DONE and ORDERED in Chambers, in Tampa, Florida, this 27th day of August, 2015.
