UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 03-1892

MARY R. HERRON,

Plaintiff - Appellant,

versus

COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY,

Defendant - Appellee.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia, at Big Stone Gap. James P. Jones, District Judge. (CA-02-60-2)

Submitted: December 24, 2003 Decided: February 10, 2004

Before LUTTIG, WILLIAMS, and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Roger W. Rutherford, WOLFE, WILLIAMS, RUTHERFORD, Norton, Virginia, for Appellant. James A. Winn, Regional Chief Counsel, Patricia M. Smith, Deputy Chief Counsel, Shawn C. Carver, Assistant Regional Counsel, SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; James L. Brownlee, United States Attorney, Julie C. Dudley, Assistant United States Attorney, Roanoke, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM:

Mary R. Herron appeals the district court’s order

affirming the Commissioner’s denial of social security disability

and supplemental security income benefits. We have reviewed the

record and the district court’s opinion and find no reversible

error.

We must uphold the Commissioner’s disability

determination if it is supported by substantial evidence.

(g) (2000); Hays v. Sullivan,

(4th

Cir. 1990). Having thoroughly reviewed the administrative record,

we agree with the district court that substantial evidence supports

the Commissioner’s final decision denying disability benefits.

Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district

court. Herron v. Commissioner of Social Security, No. CA-02-60-2

(W.D. Va. June 19, 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
