U.S. Court of Appeals Case No: 07-1796
U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas - Jonesboro
[PUBLISHED] [Bright, Author, with Wollman and Smith, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Social Security. ALJ failed to support his finding that
claimant's dependent did not meet or medically equal the severity of a
listed impairment; because the record contains inconsistencies on the
issue, the court cannot determine whether substantial evidence supports
the decision, and the matter must be remanded fur further proceedings; on
remand, the ALJ should specifically address whether the dependent's
impairments met or medically equaled listing 112.05D.
