Plaintiff Christy Allborty filed this action seeking judicial review of a final decision of the Commissioner of Social Security denying her application for supplemental security income benefits and disability insurance benefits under the Social Security Act. By Report-Recommendation dated January 28, 2016, the Honorable Andrew T. Baxter, United States Magistrate Judge, recommended that the decision of the Commissioner be reversed and the case be remanded, pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 405(g), for further proceedings. No objections to the Report-Recommendation have been filed.
Based upon a careful review of the entire file and the recommendations of the Magistrate Judge, the Report-Recommendation is accepted in whole. See 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1).
Therefore,
it is ORDERED that
The Commissioner's decision denying plaintiff disability benefits be REMANDED pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 405(g) for a proper evaluation of the medical opinion and other evidence, and other further proceedings, consistent with the Report-Recommendation.
The Clerk of the Court shall enter judgment and close the case.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
