081756P.pdf   04/09/2009  Grace Mueller  v.  Michael J. Astrue
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  08-1756
   U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa - Des Moines   
   [PUBLISHED] [Shepherd, Author, with Beam and Gruender, Circuit Judges]
Civil case - Social Security. While the ALJ erred in failing to confine his step-one analysis to the time period when claimant was last insured for purposes of disabled widow's benefits, his ultimate conclusion that claimant was not engaged in substantial gainful activity was correct, and his step-one determination was supported by substantial evidence; however, the ALJ's step-four analysis as to whether the claimant retained the residual functional capacity to perform her past relevant work was also erroneous as the ALJ's finding that clamant had past relevant work as a substitute teacher was not supported by substantial evidence; case remanded for further proceedings consistent with the opinion.
