Yarbour v. Commissioner of Social Security Administration
Opinion of the Court
MEMORANDUM
Rhonda Yarbour appeals the district court’s judgment affirming the final decision of the Commissioner of Social Security determining that Yarbour was not entitled to Supplemental Security Income payments under 42 U.S.C. § 423.
Initially, we hold that the district court did not err either by declining to review the merits of a neuropsychological evaluation performed well after the ALJ issued his written opinion or by failing to remand for the evaluation of that evidence under 42 U.S.C. § 405(g). Yarbour has failed to meet the requirements that would entitle her to a remand for new evidence: (1) she has not shown that there is a reasonable possibility that the new evidence would have changed the outcome of the hearing, Mayes v. Massanari, 276 F.3d 453, 462 (9th Cir. 2001); and (2) she has not shown good cause for her failure to present the evidence earlier, Clem v. Sullivan, 894 F.2d 328, 332 (9th Cir. 1990).
AFFIRMED.
