BUFFIE L. SMITH-BRANDON, Plaintiff, v. KILOLO KIJAKAZI, Acting Commissioner of Social Security, Defendant.
ORDER
This cause comes before the Court on Plaintiff's Complaint (Dkt. 1), seeking judicial review of the Commissioner of the Social Security Administration's (“Commissioner”) decision denying Social Security disability insurance benefits. United States Magistrate Judge Wilson issued a report recommending that the decision of the Commissioner be reversed, and the matter remanded for further proceedings (Dkt. 20). No objections have been filed and the time for doing so has passed.
After a de novo review of the record, the Court agrees with the analysis of the magistrate judge and orders as follows:
1. The Report and Recommendation (Dkt. 20) is adopted and confirmed in all respects and made a part of this Order.
2. The Commissioner's decision is reversed, and this case is remanded for further administrative proceedings in accordance with the Report and Recommendation and this Order.
3. The Clerk is directed to enter final judgment for Plaintiff and to close the case.
4. The matter of attorney's fees and costs shall be addressed upon further motion in accordance with the Court's Standing Order in In re: Administrative Order of the Chief Judge, Case No. 3:21-mc-1-TJC (Dkt. 43) (M.D. Fla. Dec. 7, 2021).
