PERKINS v. ASTRUE

This matter is before the Court on a Report and Recommendation of United States Magistrate Judge Clifford J. Proud (Doc. 22). To date, plaintiff has not filed an objection to the recommendation.

Upon review of the record, the ADOPTS the Report and Recommendation of the magistrate judge. The Court FINDS that because plaintiff has not demonstrated that remand is appropriate under either sentence four or sentence six of 42 U.S.C. § 405(g), which are the exclusive avenues for remand, the Motion for Remand (Doc. 16) is DENIED.

The Court FURTHER FINDS that the decision of the ALJ is supported by substantial evidence in the record as a whole, and no errors of law were made. The Court, therefore, AFFIRMS the final decision of the Commissioner of Social Security finding that plaintiff Donna J. Perkins is not disabled and her complaint is, accordingly, DISMISSED.
