U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit · Decided April 5, 2007
223 F. App'x 239

Hughes v. Clinchfield Coal Co.

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM:

Clara Sue Hughes 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 for the reasons stated by the Board. Hughes v. Clinchfield Coal Co., No. 06-0138-BLA (B.R.B. July 28, 2006). 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.
