Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

             Tamilla L. Bernard Ramsey appeals the magistrate judge’s

order affirming the Commissioner’s decision to deny supplemental

security income.*    We must uphold the decision to deny benefits if

the decision is supported by substantial evidence and the correct

law was applied.     See 42 U.S.C. § 405(g) (2000); Craig v. Chater,

76 F.3d 585, 589 (4th Cir. 1996).      We have thoroughly reviewed the

parties’ briefs, administrative record, and the materials submitted

in the joint appendix, and find no reversible error.     Accordingly,

we affirm.     See Ramsey v. Astrue, No. 1:06-cv-00234-DLH (W.D.N.C.

June 2, 2007).     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




     *
      The parties consented to the jurisdiction of the magistrate
judge in accordance with 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) (2000).
