42 U.S.C. § 405(g) to review the denial of benefits. The court referred the matter to Magistrate Judge Garcia on November 10, 2022, pursuant to
28 U.S.C. § 636. (Filing No. 18). Judge Garcia issued a detailed and thorough report and recommendation recommending the court affirm the Commissioner's decision on March 1, 2023. (Filing No. 19). Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 72(b)(2) gives parties 14 days to object to the R&R. No party has done so within that time. Consequently, the court reviews the R&R for clear error. Johnson v.
