PER CURIAM:

          Vernon   Sims   appeals       the    magistrate   judge’s   order

affirming the Commissioner’s decision denying Sims’ application

for supplemental security income. *           We have reviewed the record

and find no reversible error.           Accordingly, we affirm for the

reasons stated by the magistrate judge.              Sims v. Astrue, No.

8:09-cv-03195-JKS (D. Md. Mar. 29, 2011).           We dispense with oral

argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately

presented in the materials before the court and argument would

not aid the decisional process.



                                                                  AFFIRMED




     *
       This case was decided by a magistrate judge with the
parties’ consent pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) (2006).
