COMMISSIONER OF THE SOCIAL SECURITY AMINISTRATION OPINION After independently reviewing the entire record in this case and for the reasons set forth in the Magistrate Judge's Report dated July 20, 2022, (Doc. 6), to which no objection was filed; IT IS ORDERED that Plaintiff’s cause of action is DISMISSED pursuant to Local Rule 41(b)(1), and this Court’s inherent power, for failure to prosecute. See Campbell v. Wilkinson, 988 F.3d 798, 800 (5th Cir. 2021) (“Under Rule 41(b), a defendant may move to dismiss the action or any claim against it if the plaintiff fails to prosecute or to comply with these rules or a court order.

Departamento de Asuntos del Consumidor, 312 F.3d 522, 525-26 (1st Cir. 2002) (“A district court, as part of its inherent power to manage its own docket, may dismiss a case sua sponte for any of the reasons prescribed in [Rule] 41(b).”). Judgement shall be entered accordingly. Signed in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, on August 11, 2022.
