This is a Social Security appeal. Before the Court is Magistrate Judge Patricia T. Morris' report and recommendation (“R&R”) (ECF No. 16) recommending the Court grant Plaintiff Curtis W. Green, Jr.'s motion for summary judgment (ECF No. 12) and deny Defendant Commissioner of Social Security's motion for summary judgment (ECF No. 14), issued April 21, 2022. The parties were required to file specific written objections to the R&R within 14 days of service. Fed.R.Civ.P. 72(b)(2); E.D. Mich. L.R. 72.1(d). No objections were filed. The Court has nevertheless thoroughly reviewed the R&R and concurs in the reasoning and result. Accordingly, The R&R (ECF No. 16) is ADOPTED;
Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment (ECF No. 12) is GRANTED;
Defendant's motion for summary judgment (ECF No. 14) is DENIED; and
The findings of the Commissioner are REVERSED AND REMANDED for proceedings consistent with the R&R.
By failing to object to the R&R, the parties have waived any further right of appeal. United States v. Sullivan, 431 F.3d 976, 984 (6th Cir. 2005).
IT IS SO ORDERED.
