Taylor v. Commissioner, Social Security Administration

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit
Taylor v. Commissioner, Social Security Administration, 146 F. App'x 646 (4th Cir. 2005)

Taylor v. Commissioner, Social Security Administration

Opinion

PER CURIAM:

Warren A. Taylor appeals the district court’s orders adopting the magistrate judge’s report and recommendation to affirm the Commissioner’s denial of disability insurance benefits and denying reconsideration thereof. We must uphold the decision to deny benefits if the decision is supported by substantial evidence and the correct law was applied. See 42 U.S.C. § 405(g) (2000); Craig v. Chater, 76 F.3d 585, 589 (4th Cir. 1996). We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error or abuse of discretion. Accordingly, we affirm both orders on the reasoning of the district court. See Taylor v. Comm’r of Soc. Sec., No. CA-04-635-PJM (D.Md. Mar. 15, 2005 & May 23, 2005). 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
