Roger Tilley v. Comm'r of Social Security

Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit

Decided August 31, 2010No. 09-6081UnpublishedCited by 73 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

RALPH B. GUY, JR., Circuit Judge.

Plaintiff Roger D. Tilley seeks review of the district court’s decision affirming an administrative law judge’s (ALJ) denial of his application for Social Security disability and supplemental security income benefits. Tilley asserts that the ALJ’s determination was not supported by substantial evidence and that the ALJ did not accord proper weight to the opinion of his treating physician. Finding that the ALJ justifiably discounted the opinion of Tilley’s treating physician, and that substantial evidence supported the ALJ’s decision overall, we affirm.
