PEARSON MEMORANDUM OF OPINION AND ORDER [Regarding ECF No. 14] On January 19, 2024, the assigned magistrate judge issued a Report and Recommendation suggesting that the Commissioner’s decision denying Plaintiff’s applications for Period of Disability, Disability Insurance Benefits, and Supplemental Security Income be affirmed in part and vacated and remanded. See ECF No. 14. The Federal Magistrates Act requires a district court to conduct a de novo review only of those portions of a Report and Recommendation to which the parties have made an objection. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C). Parties must file any objections to a Report and Recommendation within fourteen days of service. Id.; Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b)(2). Failure to object within this time waives a party’s right to appeal the district court’s judgment. Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 145 (1985); United States v. Walters, 638 F.2d 947, 949–50 (6th Cir. 1981). Absent objections, a district court may adopt a magistrate judge’s report without review. See Thomas, 474 U.S. at 149.
