Guthrie v. Astrue

United States Court of Appeals, Sixth Circuit

283 F. App'x 391 (6th Cir. 2008)

Opinion

No. 07-4110.

July 7, 2008.

On Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Ohio.

Before: MARTIN and GRIFFIN, Circuit Judges, and GIBSON, Senior Circuit Judge.

The Honorable John R. Gibson, Senior Circuit Judge for the Eighth Circuit of the United States Court of Appeals, sitting by designation.


Deborah Guthrie challenges the administrative law judge's ruling denying her deceased husband, Bernard Coe, disability benefits for the time period from June 18, 2000 to September 5, 2004.

The district court affirmed the denial of Coe's benefits, citing the substantial evidence in support of the administrative law judge's finding that Coe had only a mild impairment and that Coe could perform a full range of sedentary work, which qualified him for a significant number of jobs. We agree with the magistrate judge that the administrative law judge's findings and inferences were reasonably drawn from the record and supported by substantial evidence. Accordingly, we affirm on the basis of the magistrate judge's opinion.
