U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit · Decided October 10, 2003 · Gregory, Michael, Wilkinson
77 F. App'x 665

Lusk v. Stonecoal Branch Mining, Inc.

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Earnel Lusk seeks review of the Benefits Review Board’s decision and order affirming the administrative law judge’s denial of black lung benefits pursuant to 30 U.S.C. §§ 901-945 (2000). 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 Lusk v. Stonecoal Branch Mining, Inc., No. 02-713 BLA (BRB Apr. 11, 2003). 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.
