Order on Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation
ROBERT N. SCOLA, JR., District Judge.
This case was referred to United States Magistrate Judge Edwin G. Torres for a ruling on all pre-trial, nondispositive matters and for a Report and Recommendation on any dispositive matters. On August 16, 2018, Judge Torres issued a Report, recommending that the Court deny the Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment, grant the Defendant's motion for summary judgment, and affirm the Administrative Law Judge's ("ALJ") decision. (Report, ECF No. 21.) No objections were filed and the time to do so has long passed. As a result, the Court reviews Judge Torres's Report for clear error. See Macort v. Prem, Inc., 208 F. App'x 781, 784 (11th Cir. 2006).
Upon review of Judge Torres's Report, the record, and the relevant legal authorities, the Court finds Judge Torres's Report cogent and compelling. Accordingly, the Court affirms and adopts Judge Torres's Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 21). The Court denies the Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment (ECF No. 17), grants the Defendant's motion for summary judgment (ECF No. 19), and hereby affirms the ALJ's ruling. The Court directs the Clerk to close this case.
Done and ordered.
