RASHEMA PORTER, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. NANCY A. BERRYHILL, Acting Commissioner of Social Security Admin., Defendant-Appellee.
ORDER
Adopting Report & Recommendation:
Affirming the Denial of SSI Benefits and Dismissing the Action With Prejudice
Directing Entry of Separate Judgment and Terminating the Case (JS-6)
Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Section 636, the Court has reviewed the pleadings, the records on file, and the Magistrate Judge's Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(1) Report and Recommendation ("R&R"). Plaintiff-appellant Porter filed objections to the R&R on April 13, 2018, within the time allotted by Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(2), and appellee Commissioner filed a timely response on April 25, 2018. As required by Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(3), the Court has engaged in de novo review of those portions of the R&R to which plaintiff specifically objected. Finding no error of law, fact, or logic, the Court accepts the findings and recommendations of the Magistrate Judge and will implement his recommendations.
Therefore, it is ordered that:
Plaintiff-appellant's objections are OVERRULED.
The Commissioner's decision to deny Supplemental Security Income benefits to plaintiff is AFFIRMED.
This action is DISMISSED with prejudice.
As required by Fed. R. Civ. P. 58(a), final judgment will issue as a separate document.
The case is TERMINATED (JS-6). Dated: Tuesday, May 29, 2018
