Earl G. MARTIN, Appellant, v. Louis W. SULLIVAN, M.D., Secretary of Health and Human Services, Appellee

Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit

Decided April 10, 1990No. 89-1545PublishedCited by 38 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

FLOYD R. GIBSON, Senior Circuit Judge.

Earl G. Martin appeals from an order of the district court 1 which adopted the report of the magistrate 2 denying his claim for social security disability benefits. The district court held that substantial evidence existed in the record as a whole to sustain the ALJ’s finding that Martin could return to his past relevant work and thus was not disabled. On appeal, Martin argues that the Secretary erred in finding that he can return to his past relevant work. For the reasons explained below, we affirm the decision of the district court.
