The court concluded that the ALJ's denial of benefits is supported by substantial evidence because plaintiff has the residual functioning capacity (RFC) to perform sedentary work, and the ALJ limited plaintiff to work involving no overhead reaching with his right arm. Further, the medical evidence supports the RFC. Accordingly, the court affirmed the judgment.
