Lucille F. Thorne v. Caspar W. Weinberger, as Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare

Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit

Decided January 19, 1976No. 75--1337PublishedCited by 58 opinions

1Per curiam

The appellant, Lucille E. Thorne, seeks review of the decision of the Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare denying her claim for social security disability benefits. The United States District Court, on cross motions for summary judgment treated the same, respectively, as motions to affirm and dismiss under Rule 7(b)(1), Fed.R.Civ.P. Torphy v. Weinberger, 384 F.Supp. 1117, 1119 (E.D. Wis.1974). Finding that the Secretary’s ruling was supported by substantial evidence on the record as a whole, the district court dismissed the case. We cannot agree.
