Clinton Heard, Plaintiff-appellant, v. Otis R. Bowen, Secretary, Department of Health and Humanservices, Defendant-appellee, 865 F.2d 255 (4th Cir. 1988)

Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit - 865 F.2d 255 (4th Cir. 1988) Submitted: Aug. 22, 1988. Decided: Dec. 2, 1988

Clinton Heard, appellant pro se.

Lawrence John Harder (Department of Health & Human Services), for appellee.

Before K.K. HALL and CHAPMAN, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.

PER CURIAM:


Pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 405(g), Clinton Heard seeks review of the final decision of the Secretary of Health & Human Services denying his claim for Social Security Insurance Benefits. Heard appeals the district court's entry of summary judgment in favor of the Secretary. Our review of the record and the district court's opinion discloses that his appeal is without merit. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district court. Heard v. Bowen, CA-86-3333 (D. Md., June 22, 1987). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the Court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED.
