CASE NO. 4:11 CV293
03-08-2012
WENDY LADDY Plaintiff v. MICHAEL J. ASTRUE, COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY Defendant
ORDER ADOPTING THE REPORT
AND RECOMMENDATION AFFIRMING
COMMISSIONER'S DECISION
UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE LESLEY WELLS
Plaintiff Wendy Laddy challenged the Commissioner of Social Security's final decision denying her applications for a Period of Disability and Disability Insurance Benefits, and Supplemental Security Income under Titles II and XVI of the Social Security Act. This case was automatically referred to United States Magistrate Judge Vecchiarelli for a Report and Recommendation ("R&R"), pursuant to Local Civil Rule 72.2(b). In her R&R, Magistrate Judge Vecchiarelli found the Commissioner's determination supported by substantial evidence in the record and consistent with applicable, legal standards. Accordingly, she recommends the Commissioner's decision be affirmed.
No party has objected to the Magistrate Judge's R&R. Therefore, it must be assumed the parties are satisfied with the Report's conclusion. Any further review by this Court would be a duplicative and inefficient use of the Court's limited resources. Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140 (1985); Howard v. Secretary of Health and Human Services, 932 F.2d 505 (6th Cir. 1991); United States v. Walters, 638 F.2d 947 (6th Cir. 1981).
Accordingly, this Court adopts the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation upholding the Commissioner's administrative denial of the plaintiffs applications for a Period of Disability and Disability Insurance Benefits, and Supplemental Security Income under Titles II and XVI of the Social Security Act.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
