Brent R.,1 
 
  Plaintiff, 
 
v. 
 
Frank Bisignano, Commissioner of Social 
Security Administration,  
 
  Defendant. 
 
 
No. 25-cv-1563 (KMM/LIB) 
 
 
ORDER ACCEPTING  
REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION 
 
 This matter is before the Court for review of the Report and Recommendation 
(R&R) issued by United States Magistrate Judge Leo I. Brisbois on May 26, 2026. 
(Dkt. 26.) The R&R recommends that the Plaintiff’s request for relief be granted and that 
this case be remanded to the Social Security Administration for further administrative 
proceedings. The deadline for any party to object to the R&R was June 9, 2026. D. Minn. 
LR 72.2(b)(1). Because neither side objected, the Court reviews the R&R for clear error. 
Nur v. Olmsted Cnty., 563 F. Supp. 3d 946, 949 (D. Minn. 2021) (citing Fed. R. Civ. P. 
72(b) and Grinder v. Gammon, 73 F.3d 793, 795 (8th Cir. 1996) (per curiam)). Having 
reviewed the R&R, the Court finds no clear error. 
 Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT: 
1. The R&R (Dkt. 26) is ACCEPTED. 
2. Plaintiff’s request for relief (Dkt. 18) is GRANTED as set forth in the R&R. 
 
1 This District has adopted the policy of using only the first name and last initial of any 
nongovernmental parties in Social Security opinions.

administrative proceedings consistent with the R&R. 
Let Judgment be entered accordingly.
