ORDER

On June 2, 2015, Plaintiff moved for an additional award of attorney fees under 42 U.S.C. § 405(b). Mot., ECF No. 23. The motion was unopposed. Resp., ECF No. 24. Upon referral pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(B) and General Order No. 14-01, Magistrate Judge Kemp recommended the Court grant Plaintiff's motion. Report and Recommendation ("R&R") 3, ECF No. 25.

Magistrate Judge Kemp notified the parties of their right to file objections to the R&R pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) and Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 72(b). Id. at 3-4. Magistrate Judge Kemp specifically advised the parties that the failure to object to the R&R within fourteen days would result in a waiver of the right to de novo review by the District Judge. Id. The deadline for filing such objections has passed, and no objections were filed.

Having received no objections, the Court ADOPTS the R&R, ECF No. 25, GRANTS Plaintiff's motion for an additional award of attorney fees, ECF No. 23, and AWARDS Plaintiff attorney fees in the amount of $13,599.50, to be offset by a refund of the prior award granted in this case.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
