UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

ANGELA GOODWATER,

Plaintiff - Appellant,

versus

MICHAEL J. ASTRUE, Commissioner of Social Security,

Defendant - Appellee.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Rock Hill. Joseph F. Anderson, Jr., Chief District Judge. (0:05-cv-03480-JFA)

Submitted: January 15, 2008 Decided: February 4, 2008

Before MICHAEL, KING, and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Beatrice E. Whitten, Mount Pleasant, South Carolina, for Appellant. Reginald I. Lloyd, United States Attorney, Robert F. Daley, Jr., Assistant United States Attorney, Columbia, South Carolina; Carolyn Cooper, Special Assistant United States Attorney, Denver, Colorado, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Angela Goodwater appeals the district court’s order

accepting the magistrate judge’s recommendation to affirm the

Commissioner’s termination of disability insurance benefits and

supplemental security income. 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

thoroughly reviewed the parties’ briefs, administrative record, and

the materials submitted in the joint appendix, and find no

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm. See Goodwater v.

Astrue, No. 0:05-cv-03480-JFA (D.S.C. Mar. 30, 2007). 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
