Snyder v. Commissioner of Social Secuity ( 2020 )

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF MICHIGAN SOUTHERN DIVISION LISA SNYDER, Plaintiff, Case Number 19-12555 v. Honorable David M. Lawson Magistrate Judge Patricia T. Morris COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY, Defendant. / ORDER ADOPTING MAGISTRATE JUDGE’S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION, DENYING PLAINTIFF’S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT, GRANTING DEFENDANT’S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT, AFFIRMING THE FINDINGS OF THE COMMISSIONER, AND DISMISSING COMPLAINT Presently before the Court is the report issued on July 30, 2020 by Magistrate Judge Patricia T. Morris pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b), recommending that the Court deny the plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment and grant the defendant’s motion for summary judgment. Although the report stated that the parties to this action could object to and seek review of the recommendation within fourteen days of service of the report, no objections have been filed thus far. The parties’ failure to file objections to the report and recommendation waives any further right to appeal. Smith v. Detroit Fed’n of Teachers Local 231, 829 F.2d 1370, 1373 (6th Cir. 1987). Likewise, the failure to object to the magistrate judge’s report releases the Court from its duty to independently review the matter. Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149 (1985). However, the Court agrees with the findings and conclusions of the magistrate judge. Accordingly, it is ORDERED that the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation (ECF No. 16) is ADOPTED. It is further ORDERED that the motion to for summary judgment filed by the plaintiff (ECF No. 12) is DENIED. It is further ORDERED that the motion for summary judgment filed by the defendant (ECF No. 15) is GRANTED. The findings of the Commissioner are AFFIRMED. s/David M. Lawson DAVID M.
