WALTER EUGENE MATTHEWS, Plaintiff, v. MICHAEL J. ASTRUE, Commissioner of Social Security, Defendant.


ORDER

Plaintiff has moved [doc. 30] for fees under the Equal Access to Justice Act. The defendant Commissioner does not opposed the requested relief [doc. 33]. Now before the court is the February 6, 2012 report and recommendation filed by Magistrate Judge H. Bruce Guyton [doc. 34], recommending that plaintiff's motion for $6,716.80 in fees be granted. There have been no timely objections filed to this report and recommendation, and enough time has passed since its filing to treat any objections as having been waived. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b).

After a careful review of this matter, the court is in agreement with the magistrate judge's conclusion. The court therefore ACCEPTS IN WHOLE the report and recommendation under 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) and Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b). It is ORDERED, for the reasons stated in the report and recommendation, which the court adopts and incorporates into its ruling, that plaintiff's motion [doc. 30] is GRANTED in the amount of Six Thousand Seven Hundred Sixteen Dollars and Eighty Cents ($6,716.80).

IT IS SO ORDERED.
