132619P.pdf   09/02/2014  Richard Welsh  v.  Carolyn Colvin
   U.S. Court of Appeals Case No:  13-2619
   U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Iowa - Cedar Rapids   
[PUBLISHED] [Loken, Author, with Murphy, Circuit Judge, and Perry, District Judge] Civil case - Social Security. Failure to mention Social Security Rule 96-9p governing situations where the claimant could perform less than the full range of sedentary work was an arguable deficiency of opinion writing by the ALJ but the ALJ properly consulted the VE and the analysis performed complied with the Rule; when the ALJ poses a hypothetical that accurately reflects his RFC finding, questions the VE about any apparent inconsistencies within the relevant DOT job descriptions, and explains the decision to credit the VE's testimony, the ALJ has complied with relevant Social Security Ruling (00-4p), and the decision is reviewed under the deferential substantial evidence standard; the ALJ did not err in finding there were a significant number of jobs claimant could perform.
