JAMES S. GWIN, UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE:
Plaintiff Marcella Brown seeks judicial review of the Social Security Commissioner’s
final decision denying her application for Supplemental Security Income.1
On March 1, 2024, Magistrate Judge Greenberg issued a Report and
Recommendation (“R&R”) recommending that the Court affirm the Commissioner’s final
decision.2 Plaintiff’s objections were due on March 15, 2024.3 Plaintiff did not file
objections.
The Federal Magistrates Act requires district courts to conduct a review of
only objected-to portions of an R&R.4 Absent objection, district courts may adopt an R&R
without review.5 Plaintiff did not object to the R&R, so this Court may adopt Magistrate
Judge Greenberg’s R&R without further review.

1 Doc. 1. Plaintiff and Defendant filed merits briefs. Docs. 9, 11. Plaintiff filed a reply. Doc. 12.
2 Doc. 13.
3 Parties have fourteen days to file objections to a Magistrate Judge’s R&R. LR 72.3(b).
4 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1).
5 , 474 U.S. 140, 149–52 (1985). Failure to timely object may waive a party’s right to appeal the
Accordingly, the Court ADOPTS Magistrate Judge Greenberg’s R&R and AFFIRMS the
Commissioner’s final decision.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
