UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 11-2342

ANTHONY E. SYDNOR, Plaintiff - Appellant, v. MICHAEL J. ASTRUE, Commissioner of Social Security, Defendant - Appellee.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia, at Danville. Jackson L. Kiser, Senior District Judge. (4:11-cv-00013-JLK-BWC)

Submitted: April 24, 2012 Decided: May 24, 2012

Before KING, DIAZ, and FLOYD, Circuit Judges.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Anthony E. Sydnor, Appellant Pro Se. Ameenah M. Lloyd, SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM: Anthony E. Sydnor appeals the district court’s order rejecting the magistrate judge’s recommendation and affirming the Commissioner of Social Security’s decision to deny Sydnor a period of supplemental security income benefits. We must uphold the decision to deny benefits if the decision is supported by substantial evidence and the correct law was applied. See Johnson v. Barnhart, 434 F.3d 650, 653 (4th Cir. 2005) (per curiam) (citing 42 U.S.C. § 405(g) (2006)). We have thoroughly reviewed the record and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district court. See Sydnor v. Comm’r of Soc. Sec., No. 4:11-cv-00013-JLK-BWC (W.D.

Va. Nov. 22, 2011). 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
