Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit

Decided July 18, 1984No. 83-2143PublishedCited by 7 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

JAMES DICKSON PHILLIPS, Circuit Judge:

Linda S. Kennedy appeals from a judgment of the United States District Court for the District of Maryland affirming the final decision of the Secretary of Health and Human Services (Secretary) denying Kennedy’s application for Social Security Disability Insurance benefits and Supplemental Security Income benefits. Because we conclude that the Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) misapplied the Secretary’s regulations governing the evaluation of mental impairments, we reverse the judgment of the district court and direct the Secretary to award Kennedy benefits.
