CASE NO. 5:13-CV-02690

DARRYL FRASE, Plaintiff, v. COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION, Defendant.
OPINION & ORDER
[Resolving Docs. 1, 16]
:
On December 1, 2014, Magistrate Judge Kathleen B. Burke recommended that the Court affirm the Commissioner of Social Security's denial of supplemental security income benefits and disability insurance benefits to Plaintiff Darryl Frase. Frase has not filed any objection to the Report and Recommendation.
Doc. 16.
The Federal Magistrates Act requires a district court to conduct a de novo review only of those portions of a Report and Recommendation to which the parties have made an objection. Parties must file any objections to a Report and Recommendation within fourteen days of service. Failure to object within that time waives a party's right to appeal the Magistrate Judge's recommendation. Absent objection, a district court may adopt the Magistrate Judge's report without review. Moreover, having conducted its own review of the complaint, record, and briefing, the Court agrees with the conclusions of the Magistrate Judge.
