Defendant-Appellee.

PER CURIAM:*

Susan J. Urban appeals the district court's decision in

favor of the Commissioner, denying her disability insurance

benefits and Supplemental Security Income. Urban argues that the

Commissioner’s decision is not supported by substantial evidence

and that the Commissioner failed to apply the correct legal

standards.

* Pursuant to Local Rule 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in Local Rule 47.5.4. No. 96-20794 - 2 -

The Commissioner applied the proper legal standards in

denying benefits to Urban. See

20 C.F.R. §§ 404.1520

, 416.920

(1995); Leggett v. Chater,

67 F.3d 558

, 563 n.2 (5th Cir. 1995).

Further, a review of the record reflects substantial evidence

supporting the Commissioner’s decision. See Ripley v. Chater,

67 F.3d 552, 555

(5th Cir. 1995).

Urban’s “Amended Motion for Remand Based on Incompetence of

Defendant’s Expert Witness” is DENIED.

AFFIRMED.
