CIAIRRA HOAG, Plaintiff, v. COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION, Defendant.
OPINION & ORDER
[Resolving Doc. 1] :
On December 11, 2018, Plaintiff Ciairra Hoag filed a complaint seeking judicial review of Defendant Commissioner of Social Security's decision to deny her social security disability benefits and supplemental security income applications. On September 27, 2019, Magistrate Judge Jonathan Greenberg recommended that the Court affirm the Commissioner's final decision.
Doc. 1.
Doc. 17.
Magistrate Judge Greenberg ordered the parties to file objections, if any, within fourteen days. Neither party objected, and the time to do so has expired.
Id. at 31.
Under the Federal Magistrates Act, a district court must conduct a de novo review of those portions of a Report and Recommendation to which the parties have objected. Absent objection, a district court may adopt a Report and Recommendation without review.
Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985); L.R. 72.3(b). --------
Here, no party has objected to the Report and Recommendation, so this Court may adopt the Report and Recommendation without further review. Moreover, having conducted its own review of the petition and record, the Court agrees with Magistrate Judge Greenberg's conclusions.
Accordingly, the Court ADOPTS Magistrate Judge Greenberg's Report and Recommendation, incorporating it fully herein by reference, AFFIRMS the Commissioner's final decision.
IT IS SO ORDERED. Dated: December 20, 2019
