Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Southern District of Florida

_________________________

(July 30, 2010) Before BLACK, WILSON and MARTIN, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM:

Michelle Jones appeals the denial and termination of long-term disability benefits by Connecticut General Life Insurance Company (“CIGNA”). In granting CIGNA’s motion for summary judgment, the district judge, adopting the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation, found that the denial of long-term disability benefits was not arbitrary and capricious. The district court concluded that CIGNA did not ignore any of the medical evidence presented by Jones in her original claim or in her subsequent appeals to CIGNA. Further, the district court found that the basis for CIGNA’s decision to deny long-term disability benefits was not arbitrary and capricious.

We have carefully reviewed the briefs and the record, and after de novo review, which included the benefit of oral argument, we find that the district court properly granted summary judgment to CIGNA. We therefore affirm the judgment of the district court.

AFFIRMED.
