No. 22-30422 origin.

The parties consented, per 28 U.S.C. § 636(c), to having the matter determined by the magistrate judge sitting as the district court. After three years of proceedings, the court granted the Secretary’s motion for summary judgment. The court carefully explored all of Johnson-Luster’s contentions and explained its reasons in a detailed 30-page order, Docket No. 74, entered on March 14, 2022.

Johnson-Luster appeals pro se.

We have examined the briefs, pertinent parts of the record, and the applicable law. There is no reason to try to improve on the district court’s comprehensive explication of the issues on appeal. The summary judgment is AFFIRMED, essentially for the reasons advanced by the district court. Johnson-Luster’s motion for oral argument is DENIED.
