Appellee.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

           Linda M. Wright seeks review of the district court’s

decision, adopting the magistrate judge’s recommendation, affirming

the Commissioner’s denial of social security disability benefits

pursuant to 20 C.F.R. § 404.1520(f) (2003).           Our review of the

record discloses that the Commissioner’s decision is based upon

substantial evidence and is without reversible error. In addition,

we decline to consider the new evidence that Wright submitted on

appeal    because it fails to meet the requirements set forth in

Borders   v.   Heckler,   777   F.2d     954,   955   (4th   Cir.    1985).

Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order.           See Wright v.

Barnhart, No. CA-02-62-2 (W.D. Va. July 29, 2003).            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
