Robert Gibbens v. Comm'r of Social Security

Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit

1Opinion of the Court

OPINION

JANE B. STRANCH, Circuit Judge.

Appellant Robert Gibbens challenges the decision of the Commissioner of Social Security to deny his claim for disability benefits. He contends that the administrative law judge who presided over his hearing erred by (1) rejecting the medical opinion of his treating physician, and (2) formulating hypothetical questions for the vocational expert that did not accurately reflect his limitations in concentration, persistence, and pace. Because the Commissioner’s decision is supported by sub-- stantial evidence, we AFFIRM the judgment of the district court.
