PER CURIAM:

     Keith    W.   Wormack   appeals       the   magistrate   judge’s   order*

entering summary judgment in favor of the Commissioner in Wormack’s

action for review of a final decision of the Commissioner of Social

Security denying his claim for disability insurance benefits.              We

have reviewed the record and the magistrate judge’s opinion and

find no reversible error.     Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning

of the magistrate judge. See Wormack v. Apfel, No. CA-00-315-L (D.

Md. Sept. 5, 2001).      We dispense with oral argument because the

facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the mate-

rials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional

process.




                                                                    AFFIRMED




     *
       The parties consented to the jurisdiction of the magistrate
judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) (1994).
