U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 06-3863
U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Des Moines
[PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Bye and Riley, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Social Security. Substantial evidence supported the ALJ's
decision to give little weight to the treating physician's opinions that
claimant cannot tolerate even one hour of prolonged sitting and must
have the ability to elevate his legs, and the ALJ did not err in holding
claimant was not disabled because he retained the residual functional
capacity to perform certain sedentary jobs. Judge Bye, dissenting.
