MARGARET COLE,

KENNETH S. APFEL, COMMISSIONER
OF SOCIAL SECURITY,
Defendant-Appellee.

Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Western District of Texas
(SA-96-CV-1164)
_________________________________________________________________
July 7, 1998
Before WIENER, BARKSDALE, and EMILIO M. GARZA, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Margaret Cole appeals the judgment affirming the decision of
the Commissioner of Social Security denying her claim for
Supplemental Security Income. She contends that the Commissioner
failed to apply the correct legal standards and that his decision
was not supported by substantial evidence.
The Commissioner’s decision reflects that the Commissioner
applied the proper legal standards in denying benefits to Cole.
*
Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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 5TH CIR. R.
47.5.4.
See 20 C.F.R. § 404.1520 (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). Based on our
review of the record and the briefs of the parties, we find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we AFFIRM the judgment for
essentially the reasons stated by the district court. See Cole v.
Callahan, No. SA-96-CA-1164 (W.D. Tex. July 24, 1997).
