Miller v. Sullivan
Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit

1Opinion of the Court
BRIGHT, Senior Circuit Judge.
Delores Miller, a fifty-five-year-old former receptionist, applied for Social Security disability benefits provided by 42 U.S.C. § 423 (1988), in 1987, claiming disabling neck, back and leg pains. The Secretary and the district court have rejected Miller’s claim finding her allegations of disabling pain not credible and unsupported by objective medical evidence. We reverse and order the district court to order the Secretary to grant Miller benefits because the Secretary, in finding her claims not credible, did not base his denial on substantial evidence.
