Clarke v. Barnhart

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Brenda C. Clarke appeals the district court’s order rejecting the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation and upholding the Administrative Law Judge’s denial of claims for Supplemental Security Income. We affirm. We must uphold the decision to deny disability benefits if the decision is supported by substantial evidence and the correct law was applied. See 42 U.S.C.A. § 405(g) (West Supp. 2001); Craig v. Chater, 76 F.3d 585, 589 (4th Cir. 1996). We have reviewed the record and the district court’s order and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Clarke v. Barnhart, No. CA-01-2007-6-20 (D.S.C. Nov. 2, 2001). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in *118 the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED.
