Rasnake v. Director, Office of Workers' Compensation Programs

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit
Rasnake v. Director, Office of Workers' Compensation Programs, 30 F. App'x 313 (4th Cir. 2002)

Rasnake v. Director, Office of Workers' Compensation Programs

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Dwaine Rasnake seeks review of the Benefits Review Board’s decision and orders affirming the administrative law judge’s dismissal of his claim for black lung benefits filed pursuant to 30 U.S.C.A. §§ 901-945 (West 1986 & Supp. 2001), and denying reconsideration. Our review of the record discloses that the Board’s decision is based upon substantial evidence and is without reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the Board. See Rasnake v. Director, Office of Workers’ Compensation Prog., No. 00-735-BLA (BRB Apr. 19, 2001; Sep. 25, 2001). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED.
