ORDER ACCEPTING AND ADOPTING REPORT & RECOMMENDATION

SEAN F. COX, District Judge.

This is a social security appeal. On April 24, 2013, Plaintiff Nancy Louise Berg filed her Complaint with this Court against the Commissioner of Social Security, alleging that an Administrative Law Judge's denial of her Social Security Disability Insurance benefits application is unsupported by substantial evidence and is contrary to law and regulation. (Doc. #1).

On September 11, 2013, Plaintiff filed a Motion For Summary Judgment (Doc. #13). On October 24, 2013, Defendant filed a Cross-Motion for Summary Judgment (Doc. #14). This case was referred to Magistrate Judge Charles E. Binder for issuance of a Report and Recommendation pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and (C). (Doc. #3).

On September 10, 2014, Magistrate Judge Binder issued a Report and Recommendation ("R&R") wherein he recommended that this Court GRANT Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment and DENY Plaintiff's Motion for Summary Judgment (Doc. #16).

Pursuant to FED. R. CIV. P. 72(b), a party objecting to the recommended disposition of a matter by a Magistrate Judge must file objections to the R&R within fourteen (14) days after being served with a copy of the R&R. FED. R. CIV. P. 72(b)(2). "The district judge must determine de novo any part of the magistrate judge's disposition that has been properly objected to." Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(3).

The time for filing objections to the R&R has expired and the docket reflects that neither party has filed objections to the R&R. Furthermore, the Court agrees with the Magistrate Judge's recommendation. Therefore, the Court hereby ADOPTS the September 10, 2014 R&R. IT IS

ORDERED that Plaintiff's Motion for Summary Judgment (Doc. #13) is DENIED, Defendant's Motion for Summary Judgment (Doc. #14) is GRANTED, and Plaintiff's Complaint is DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
