ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION (DKT. 15)

TERRENCE G. BERG, District Judge.

This matter is before the Court on Magistrate Judge Patricia T. Morris's October 31, 2014 Report and Recommendation (Dkt. 15), recommending that Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment be GRANTED, that Defendant's motion for summary judgment be DENIED, and that this case be remanded to the Commissioner under sentence four of 42 U.S.C. § 405(g) for further proceedings.

The Court has reviewed the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation. The law provides that either party may serve and file written objections "[w]ithin fourteen days after being served with a copy" of the report and recommendations. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). The district court will make a "de novo determination of those portions of the report . . . to which objection is made." Id. Where, as here, neither party objects to the report, the district court is not obligated to independently review the record. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149-52 (1985). The Court will, therefore, accept the Magistrate's Report and Recommendation of October 31, 2014, as this Court's findings of fact and conclusions of law.

Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that Magistrate Judge Morris's Report and Recommendation of October 31, 2014 (Dkt. 15) is ACCEPTED and ADOPTED. It is FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment (Dkt. 11) is GRANTED, Defendant's motion for summary judgment (Dkt. 13) is DENIED, and that this case is REMANDED to the Commissioner under sentence four of 42 U.S.C. § 405(g) for further proceedings.

SO ORDERED.
