ARTHUR W. HENDERSON, III, Plaintiff, v. COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY, Defendant.
ORDER CHRISTOPHER A. BOYKO , J :
On December 18, 2019, Plaintiff filed a Complaint pursuant to Title 42 U.S.C. §§ 405(g) and 1383(c). (Doc. 1). The Court referred this matter to Magistrate Judge Thomas M. Parker pursuant to Local Rule 72.2. On November 24, 2020, the Magistrate Judge recommended affirming the Commissioner's denial of Plaintiff's applications for disability insurance benefits and supplemental security income. (Doc. 19). Plaintiff has not filed an objection.
Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 72 provides that objections to a report and recommendation must be filed within fourteen days after service. FED. R. CIV. P. 72(b). Plaintiff has failed to timely file any such objections. Therefore, the Court must assume that Plaintiff is satisfied with the Magistrate Judge's recommendation. Any further review by this Court would be duplicative and an inefficient use of the Court's limited resources. Thomas v. Arn, 728 F.2d 813 (6th Cir. 1984), aff'd 474 U.S. 140 (1985); Howard v. Sec'y of Health & Human Serv., 932 F.2d 505 (6th Cir. 1991); United States v. Walters, 638 F.2d 947 (6th Cir. 1981).
Therefore, Magistrate Judge Parker's Report and Recommendation is ADOPTED and the Commissioner's decision is AFFIRMED.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
