Whitaker v. Commissioner of Social Security
Whitaker v. Commissioner of Social Security
Trial Court Opinion
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF OHIO WESTERN DIVISION
Stacy Jo Whitaker, Case No. 3:22-cv-922
Plaintiff,
v. MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
Commissioner of Social Security,
Defendant.
Before me is the Report and Recommendation (“R & R”) of Magistrate Judge Jonathan D. Greenberg filed on November 22, 2022. (Doc. No. 15). Under the relevant statute: Within [fourteen (14)] days after being served a copy of these proposed Findings and Recommendation, any party who wishes to object must file and serve written objections or further appeal is waived.
United States v. Campbell,
261 F.3d 628, 631-32(6th Cir. 2001) (citation omitted); see also
28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) (effective Dec. 1, 2009); Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(2). In this case, the fourteen-day window for objections has elapsed, and no objections have been filed. Following review of Judge Greenberg’s R & R, I adopt it in its entirety as the Order of the Court. I agree that the ALJ failed to discuss the relevant objective evidence supporting Plaintiff’s impairments in focus, concentration, and memory. Because I cannot determine whether this evidence was discounted or simply overlooked, I cannot meaningfully review the ALJ’s decision and conclude whether it is supported by substantial evidence. Therefore, as recommended by Judge Greenberg, the ALJ’s decision is reversed, and the matter is remanded for further proceedings consistent with Judge Greenberg’s R & R. So Ordered. s/ Jeffrey J. Helmick United States District Judge
