On May 2, 2019, Magistrate Judge David R. Grand issued a report and recommendation proposing that the court grant Defendant's motion for summary judgment and deny Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment. Magistrate Judge Grand further recommends that the court affirm the decision of the Administrative Law Judge in this action for social security benefits. No timely objections have been filed.
With respect to reports and recommendations from magistrate judges, this court "shall make a de novo determination of those portions of the report or specified proposed findings or recommendations to which objection is made." 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C). The court "may accept, reject or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or recommendations made by the magistrate." Id.
Upon review of the report and recommendation, and having received no objection, the court agrees with Magistrate Judge Grand's analysis and conclusions.
Therefore, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Magistrate Judge Grand's report and recommendation (Doc. 22) is ACCEPTED and ADOPTED as the order of the court.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment (Doc. 19) is DENIED, Defendant's motion for summary judgment (Doc. 20) is GRANTED, and the ALJ's decision is AFFIRMED. Dated: May 21, 2019
