Borrego v. Astrue
District Court, W.D. Texas · 2011-10-04
This case is a judicial review under 42 U.S.C. § 405(g) of the Social Security Administration's denial of disability insurance benefits to plaintiff Geraldine Borrego, who alleged onset in 2005 due to post-mastectomy complications, arm and shoulder issues, and other conditions. The ALJ found Borrego not disabled through her last insured date because she could perform her past relevant work as a clerical worker. The court affirmed the Commissioner's final decision after applying the substantial-evidence standard of review, concluding that the ALJ's findings were supported by the record and that the proper legal standards had been used.
