THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS

CENTRAL DIVISION

MICHAEL CASEY PLAINTIFF

v. Case No. 4:18-cv-00679-KGB

ANDREW M. SAUL, COMMISSIONER OF THE

SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION1 DEFENDANT

ORDER

Before the Court is the Recommended Disposition submitted by United States Magistrate 

Judge Patricia S. Harris on August 26, 2019 (Dkt. No. 12). In her Recommended Disposition, 

Judge Harris recommends that the decision of Andrew M. Saul, the Commissioner of the Social 

Security Administrator (“the Commissioner”), be reversed and remanded for further proceedings. 

No objections have been filed, and the deadline for filing objections has since passed. After careful 

consideration, the Court finds no reason to alter or reject Judge Harris’ conclusion.

Therefore, the Court adopts the Recommended Disposition in its entirety as this Court’s 

findings of fact and conclusions of law (Dkt. No. 12). The Commissioner’s final decision denying 

Social Security benefits is reversed and remanded for proceedings not inconsistent with this Order. 

This case is remanded pursuant to sentence four of 42 U.S.C. § 405(g) and Melkonyan v. Sulivan, 

501 U.S. 89 (1991).

It is so ordered this 2nd day of March, 2020.
