Plaintiff - Appellant,

v.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, at Wilmington. Louise W. Flanagan, District Judge. (7:13-cv-00040-FL)

Submitted: November 30, 2015 Decided: December 29, 2015

Before WILKINSON and FLOYD, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit Judge.

Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

William Lee Davis, III, Lumberton, North Carolina, for Appellant. Thomas G. Walker, United States Attorney, R.A. Renfer, Jr., Assistant United States Attorney, David N. Mervis, Special Assistant United States Attorney, Raleigh, North Carolina, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Irene Hitchens appeals the district court’s order adopting

the magistrate judge’s recommendation and upholding the

Commissioner’s denial of Hitchens’ applications for disability

benefits and supplemental security income. Our review of the

Commissioner’s determination is limited to evaluating whether

the findings are supported by substantial evidence and whether

the correct law was applied. See Mascio v. Colvin,

(4th Cir. 2015).

We have thoroughly reviewed the parties’ briefs, the

administrative record, and the joint appendix, and we discern no

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s

judgment. Hitchens v. Colvin, No. 7:13-cv-00040-FL (E.D.N.C.

Dec. 9, 2014). We dispense with oral argument because the facts

and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials

before this court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.

AFFIRMED
