Dunne v. Comm'r of Soc. Sec.

Plaintiff Michelle Marie Dunne sought judicial review of the Social Security Commissioner's final decision denying her applications for disability insurance benefits (DIB) and supplemental security income (SSI). She alleged disability due to various conditions including essential tremors, bipolar disorder, and asthma, with an onset date of October 15, 2012. An Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) found her severe impairments to be affective disorder, obesity, and essential tremors, but concluded she retained the residual functional capacity (RFC) for light work with specific limitations. Based on vocational expert testimony, the ALJ determined there were jobs in the national economy she could perform and thus found her not disabled. The District Court affirmed the Commissioner's decision, finding it supported by substantial evidence and free from legal error, specifically addressing Plaintiff's arguments regarding the weighing of treating physician opinions, the RFC assessment, and the evaluation of her tremors.

DAVID WILSON (Deceased) vs. SECURITAS SECURITY SERVICES USA, INC., SEDGWICK CLAIMS MANAGEMENT SERVICES

The Workers' Compensation Appeals Board granted reconsideration of a decision regarding deceased applicant David Wilson's permanent disability benefits. The Board found the record inadequate to determine if applicant's right hand tremors stemmed from his industrial injury. Therefore, the case is returned to the trial level for further medical development of this specific issue by Dr. Horner. The Board did not address other contentions concerning benefit termination after death or constitutional challenges at this time.
