Consolidation Coal Co. v. Earl
Opinion
Consolidation Coal Company seeks review of the Benefits Review Board’s decision and order affirming the administrative law judge’s award of black lung disability and survivor’s 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 for the reasons stated by the Board. Consolidation Coal Co. v. Earl, No. 04-0380-BLA (BRB Jan. 18, 2005). We grant Consolidation Coal’s motion to strike the addendum to respondent’s informal reply brief and 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
