Opinion

Case No. 14-cv-12258

12-29-2015

OFOSUAH QUAYNOR, Plaintiff, v. COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY, Defendant.


UNITED STATES MAGISTRATE JUDGE DAVID R. GRAND ORDER ACCEPTING AND ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION [16], GRANTING DEFENDANT'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT [14], DENYING PLAINTIFF'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT [12], AND AFFIRMING THE COMMISSIONER'S DECISION

On December 9, 2015, Magistrate Judge David Grant issued a Report and Recommendation [16] to deny Plaintiff's Motion for Summary Judgement [12], grant Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment [14], and affirm the Commissioner of Social Security's decision. Magistrate Judge Grand made this recommendation after he concluded that substantial evidence supported the Administrative Law Judge's conclusion that Plaintiff was overpaid Disability Insurance Benefits in the amount of $46,455.10, and that she did not qualify for a waiver of the overpayment. No objections have been filed, and the time for filing objections has expired. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). Upon review of the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation, the Court concludes that the Magistrate Judge reached the correct conclusion.

Therefore, the Court hereby ACCEPTS and ADOPTS Magistrate Judge Grand's December 9, 2015 Report and Recommendation [16] as this Court's findings of fact and conclusions of law. Plaintiff's Motion for Summary Judgment is HEREBY DENIED. Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment is GRANTED and the Commissioner of Social Security's decision is AFFIRMED.

IT IS SO ORDERED. Dated: December 29, 2015
