1Opinion of the Court
CLAY, Circuit Judge.
In this appeal from the district court’s grant of summary judgment to Defendant, Jo Anne B. Barnhart, Commissioner of Social Security (“the Commissioner”), Plaintiff, Shirley M. Brewster (“Brewster”), challenges the denial of her application for Social Security benefits, filed under the Social Security Act, 42 U.S.C. § 401 et seq. Specifically, Brewster contends that the Administrative Law Judge (“ALJ”) who reviewed her case wrongly determined that he was bound by a prior ALJ’s finding that Brewster’s past relevant work included work at a light exertional level.
