Administrative: Social Security Disability-Denial of Benefits-Substantial Gainful Activity
Staff Report//August 29, 2019
Where a claimant challenged the denial of her application for Social Security disability-insurance benefits, the judgment is affirmed because the conclusions of the administrative law judge that the claimant could perform her past relevant work as a receptionist and that her work as a receptionist constituted substantial gainful activity were supported by substantial evidence.
Judgment is affirmed.
