Stephens v. Berryhill
Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit

1Opinion of the Court
Coleman, District Judge.
Kirk W. Stephens contends that he is disabled by diabetes, kidney disease, knee and back pain, heart disease, high blood pressure, asthma, arthritis, and obesity. He applied for and was denied Supplement Security Income ("SSI") benefits; on review the district court reversed and remanded for a new hearing. Following the second hearing, a different Administrative Law Judge ("ALJ") determined that Stephens' impairments, although severe, were not disabling and that he could perform relevant past work. The district court upheld the agency's decision. We affirm.
