ORDER

(1) ADOPTING THE RECOMMENDATION CONTAINED IN THE MAGISTRATE JUDGE'S REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION DATED JANUARY 31, 2018 (Dkt. 15), (2) DENYING PLAINTIFF'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT (Dkt. 12), AND (3) GRANTING DEFENDANT'S MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT (Dkt. 13)

This matter is presently before the Court on the Report and Recommendation (R&R) of Magistrate Judge Stephanie Dawkins Davis, issued on January 31, 2018 (Dkt. 15). In the R&R, the Magistrate Judge recommends that the Court deny Plaintiff Crystal Hudson's motion for summary judgment (Dkt. 12), and grant Defendant Commissioner of Social Security's motion for summary judgment (Dkt. 13).

The parties have not filed objections to the R&R, and the time to do so has expired. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(2). The failure to file a timely objection to an R&R constitutes a waiver of the right to further judicial review. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 150 (1985) ("It does not appear that Congress intended to require district court review of a magistrate's factual or legal conclusions, under a de novo or any other standard, when neither party objects to those findings."); Smith v. Detroit Fed'n of Teachers, 829 F.2d 1370, 1373-4 (6th Cir. 1987) (failure to file objection to R&R "waived subsequent review of the matter"); Cephas v. Nash, 328 F.3d 98, 1078 (2d Cir. 2003) ("As a rule, a party's failure to object to any purported error or omission in a magistrate judge's report waives further judicial review of the point."); Lardie v. Birkett, 221 F.Supp.2d 806, 807 (E.D. Mich. 2002) ("As to the parts of the report and recommendation to which no party has objected, the Court need not conduct a review by any standard."). There is some authority that a district court is required to review the R&R for clear error, see Fed. R. Civ. P. 72 Advisory Committee Note Subdivision (b) ("When no timely objection is filed, the court need only satisfy itself that there is no clear error on the face of the record in order to accept the recommendation."). Therefore, the Court has reviewed the R&R for clear error. On the face of the record, the Court finds no clear error and adopts the recommendation.

Accordingly, the Court denies Plaintiff's motion for summary judgment (Dkt. 12), and grants Defendant's motion for summary judgment (Dkt. 13).

SO ORDERED.
