Sheila Michael, Appellant Pro Se. Alex Gordon, Allen F. Loucks,
Assistant United States Attorneys, Baltimore, Maryland, for
Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Sheila Michael appeals the magistrate judge’s order
affirming the Commissioner of Social Security’s decision to deny
Michael a period of disability insurance benefits. * We must
uphold the decision to deny benefits if the decision is
supported by substantial evidence and the correct law was
applied. See 42 U.S.C. § 405(g) (West Supp. 2011); Johnson v.
Barnhart, 434 F.3d 650, 653 (4th Cir. 2005) (per curiam). We
have thoroughly reviewed the record and find no reversible
error. Accordingly, we affirm. See Michael v. Astrue, No.
8:09-cv-02575-JKS (D. Md. Sept. 26, 2011). We dispense with
oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are
adequately presented in the materials before the court and
argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
*
Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) (2006), the parties
consented to proceeding before a magistrate judge.
