Teresa Fedje, Appellant, v. Jo Anne B. Barnhart, Appellee, 319 F.3d 1048 (8th Cir. 2003)

Annotate this Case
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit - 319 F.3d 1048 (8th Cir. 2003) Submitted: February 14, 2003
Filed: February 24, 2003

Ethel Schaen, argued, St. Paul, MN, for appellant.

Mona Ahmed, argued, Social Security Administration, Chicago, IL (Depak Sathy, Chicago, IL, on the brief), for appellant.

Before HANSEN, Chief Judge, RICHARD S. ARNOLD and BYE, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.


After a hearing, an administrative law judge denied Teresa Fedje's application for disability insurance benefits, finding that the Commissioner of Social Security had met her burden to prove that Fedje could perform jobs that exist in significant numbers in the national economy. The Appeals Council denied further review, and the district court1  granted summary judgment to the Commissioner.

After carefully reviewing the record and the parties' briefs, we agree with the district court that substantial evidence supports the denial of benefits. Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district court. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
