Madelyn Damron v. Secretary of Health and Human Services

Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit

Decided December 5, 1985No. 85-3108PublishedCited by 74 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

CORNELIA G. KENNEDY, Circuit Judge.

Plaintiff Madelyn Damron appeals the District Court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of the Secretary. Damron filed an application for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) on July 6, 1982, which was denied both initially and on reconsideration. An Administrative Law Judge (AU) heard the case on April 7, 1983, and denied benefits as well. The Appeals Council affirmed the AU’s decision. The issue in this case is whether the District Court erred in holding that the final decision of the Secretary was supported by substantial evidence on the record.
