Opinion
CASE NO. 16-CV-11818
08-17-2017
CRYSTAL SHAMSUD-DIN, Plaintiff, v. COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY, Defendant.
ORDER ACCEPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION (DOC. 21), DENYING PLAINTIFF'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT (DOC. 16), and GRANTING DEFENDANT'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT (DOC. 18)
Plaintiff brought this action challenging defendant Commissioner of Social Security's denial of her claim for social security disability benefits. Before the court are the parties' cross-motions for summary judgment, which were referred to the magistrate judge for a report and recommendation. On July 24, 2017, Magistrate Judge Mona Majzoub issued her report, recommending that defendant's motion be granted, and plaintiff's motion be denied.
The magistrate judge specifically stated that any objections to his report were to be filed within 14 days of service, and that failure to file such objections constituted a waiver of any further right to appeal. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 155 (1985). No such objections were filed by either party and the time period for doing so has expired.
The court has reviewed the record and briefing in this matter, as well as the magistrate judge's report and recommendation, and adopts the result recommended therein. Accordingly, plaintiff's motion for summary judgment (Doc. 16) is DENIED, defendant's motion for summary judgment (Doc. 18) is GRANTED.
IT IS SO ORDERED. Dated: August 17, 2017
