ADAMS MEMORANDUM OF OPINION AND ORDER The Social Security Administration denied Plaintiff’s application for supplemental security income under Title XVI of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. § 1381 et seq.) in the above-captioned case. Plaintiff sought judicial review of the Commissioner’s decision, and this Court referred the case to Magistrate Judge Nancy A. Vecchiarelli for preparation of a report and recommendation pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636 and Local Rules 72.2(b)(1). The Magistrate Judge submitted a report and recommendation (Doc. 17) recommending that the Court affirm the Commissioner’s decision. Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b) provides that the parties may object to a report and recommendation within ten (10) days after service. Plaintiff filed a Notice (Doc. 19) advising the Court that she would not be filing objections to the Magistrate’s report and recommendation; and to date, no objections have been filed. Any further review by this Court would be a duplicative and inefficient use of the Court’s limited resources. Thomas v. Arn, 728 F.2d 813 (6th Cir. 1984); Howard v. Sec’y of Health and Human Servs., 932 F.2d 505 (6th Cir. 1991); United States v. Walters, 638 F.2d 947, 949-50 (6th Cir. 1981). Accordingly, the report and recommendation of the Magistrate Judge is hereby adopted. The Commissioner’s decision denying Plaintiff benefits is affirmed. IT IS SO ORDERED. Dated: September 2, 2014 /s/ John R. Adams_______________ UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
