U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 06-3640
U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Jonesboro
[PUBLISHED] [Wollman, Author, with Beam and Colloton, Circuit
Judges]
Civil case - Social Security. Substantial evidence supported the ALJ's
finding that claimant's mental impairments did not meet or equal the
listed requirements for mental retardation; ALJ did not err in finding
claimant retained the residual functional capacity to do unskilled or
semiskilled work and the decision was supported by substantial medical
evidence; the hypothetical questions posed to the vocational expert
captured the consequences of claimant's conditions, and the ALJ did not
err in relying on the expert's answer.
