OPINION & ORDER
[Resolving Docs. 1, 20]
JAMES S. GWIN, District Judge.
On June 29, 2015, Magistrate Judge George J. Limbert recommended that the Court reverse the Commissioner's denial of Plaintiff Ritchie's application for disability insurance benefits and supplemental security income and remand this case for further proceedings.1 Defendant Commissioner of Social Security has filed notice that it will not object to this report and recommendation.2 The Court ADOPTS the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation, REVERSES the Commissioner's decision, and REMANDS the case for further proceedings.
The Federal Magistrates Act requires a district court to conduct a de novo review only of those portions of a Report and Recommendation to which the parties have made an objection.3 Absent objection, a district court may adopt the Magistrate Judge's report without review.4 Moreover, having conducted its own review of the complaint5 and briefing,6 the Court agrees with the conclusions of the Magistrate Judge.
Accordingly, the Court ADOPTS Magistrate Judge Limbert's findings of fact and conclusions of law and incorporates them fully herein by reference. The Court REVERSES the Commissioner's decision and REMANDS this case for further proceedings.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
