"The initial burden of establishing a prima facie case of disability is on the claimant, and he must show his inability to return to his former work." Lopez v. Califano, 481 F. Supp. 392 (N.D.Cal. 1979). The ALJ found that plaintiff "has a condition which would prevent him from engaging in physically demanding activity than those he engaged in as an agricultural laborer."
Additionally, subsequent Ninth Circuit cases expressly affirm Hall's continuing vitality. See, Giampaoli v. Califano, 628 F.2d 1190, 1192 (9th Cir. 1980); Johnson v. Harris, 625 F.2d 311, 312 (9th Cir. 1980) ("The Secretary must show that the claimant has the mental and physical capacity to perform specified jobs."); and Lopez v. Califano, 481 F. Supp. 392, 396 (N.D.Cal. 1979). In the case at hand, the ALJ simply made the finding that "[t]he claimant has the residual functional capacity confined to sedentary work."
