This matter is before the Court on the Report and Recommendation (R&R) of United States Magistrate Judge Shannon G. Elkins dated July 31, 2025. (Doc. No. 14.) The R&R recommends that Michelle F.’s request for relief be denied and the Commissioner’s decision to deny benefits be upheld. Neither party has objected to the R&R, and the time to do so has now passed. See D. Minn. L.R. 72.2(b)(1). In the absence of timely objections, the Court reviews the R&R for clear error. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b); Grinder v. Gammon, 73 F.3d 793, 795 (8th Cir. 1996) (per curiam). Finding no clear error, and based upon all the files, records, and proceedings in the above-

1 This District has adopted a policy of using only the first name and last initial of any non-governmental party on orders in Social Security matters. captioned matter, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT: 1. The R&R (Doc. No. 14) is ADOPTED. 2. The Court dismisses this action without prejudice.

LET JUDGMENT BE ENTERED ACCORDINGLY. Dated: August 28, 2025 /s/ Jeffrey M. Bryan Judge Jeffrey M. Bryan United States District Court
