Troia v. Commissioner of Social Security

Opinion

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF WEST VIRGINIA Wheeling

MELISSA L. TROIA, Plaintiff, V. CIVIL ACTION NO. 5:23-CV-308 Judge Bailey KILOLO KIJAKAZI, Commissioner of Social Security, Defendant.

ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION The above referenced case is before this Court upon the magistrate judge’s recommendation that the plaintiff's Application to Proceed in Forma Pauperis be denied. This Court is charged with conducting a de novo review of any portion of the magistrate judge’s report to which a specific objection is registered, and may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the recommendations contained in that report. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). However, absent prompt objection by a dissatisfied party, it appears that Congress did not intend for the district court to review the factual and legal conclusions of the magistrate judge. Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140 (1985). Additionally, any party who fails to file timely, written objections to the magistrate judge’s report pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1) waives the right to raise those objections at the appellate court level. United States v. Schronce, 727 F.2d 91 (4th Cir. 1984), cert. denied, 467 U.S. 1208 (1984). No objections have been filed to the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation.

Accordingly, a review of the record indicates that the magistrate judge’s report accurately summarizes this case and the applicable law. As such, the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation [Doc. 4] is AFFIRMED, and plaintiff's Application to Proceed in Forma Pauperis [Doc. 2] is DENIED. It is so ORDERED. The Clerk is directed to transmit copies of this Order to all counsel of record herein. DATED: October 27, 2023.
