Martinez v. Commissioner of Social Security
Trial Court Opinion
UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT EASTERN DISTRICT OF TEXAS No. 6:20-cv-00034 Kristina Marie Martinez, Plaintiff, V. Commissioner, SSA, Defendant.
ORDER Plaintiff Kristina Marie Martinez filed this action pursuant to Section 205(g) of the Social Security Act, seeking judicial review of the defendant's denial of her application for Social Security benefits. Doc. 1. The case was referred to United States Magistrate Judge John D. Love pursuant to
28 U.S.C. § 636(b). Doc. 2. On January 20, 2021, the magistrate judge issued a report recommending that the defendant’s decision be reversed and that this case be remanded to the Commissioner of the Social Security Administration for further proceedings consistent with the opinion of the court. Doc. 18. Neither party has ob- jected to the magistrate judge’s report, and the allotted time to do so has passed. When no party objects to the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation, the court reviews it only for clear error. See Douglass v. United Servs. Auto. Ass’n,
79 F.3d 1415, 1420(Sth Cir. 1996). Having reviewed the magistrate judge’s report, and being satisfied that it contains no clear error, the court ac- cepts its findings and recommendation. The decision of the Commissioner is reversed, and this case is remanded to the Commissioner of the Social Security Administration for pro- ceedings consistent with the court’s opinion.
So ordered by the court on February 8, 2021. [Gack BARKER United States District Judge
