ORDER
The Honorable Paul Papak, United States Magistrate Judge, filed Findings and Recommendation on March 2, 2010. The matter is before this court. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and Fed.R.Civ.P. 72(b). No objections have been timely filed. This relieves me of my obligation to give the factual findings de novo review.Lorin Corp. v. Goto Co., Ltd., 700 F.2nd 1202, 1206 (8th Cir. 1983); See also Britt v. Simi Valley Unified School Dist., 708 F.2d 452, 454 (9th Cir. 1983). Having reviewed the legal principles de novo, I find no error.
Accordingly, I ADOPT Magistrate Judge Papak's Findings and Recommendation dated March 2, 2010 (#29) in its entirety.
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Kovacevic's Motion for Attorney Fees (#27) is GRANTED and Kovacevic's counsel will be paid $3,317.28 out of Kovacevic's retroactive benefits award.
