MICHAEL WEXLER, Plaintiff, v. MICHAEL J. ASTRUE, Commissioner of Social Security, Defendant.
Collier/Carter
JUDGMENT ORDER
On February 6, 2013, United States Magistrate Judge William B. Mitchell Carter filed a report and recommendation ("R&R") in this case, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b) and Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b) (Court File No. 11). Neither party has objected to the R&R within the given fourteen days.
After reviewing the record, the Court agrees with the R&R. The Court hereby ACCEPTS and ADOPTS the magistrate judge's findings of fact, conclusions of law, and recommendations.
Accordingly, the Court ORDERS:
(1) Plaintiff's motion for judgment on the pleadings is DENIED (Court File No. 6);
(2) Defendant's motion for summary judgment is GRANTED (Court File No. 8);
(3) The Commissioner's decision denying benefits to Plaintiff is AFFIRMED; and
(4) This action is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE. Because no further matters remain for adjudication, the Clerk of Court is directed to CLOSE the case.
SO ORDERED.
