PER CURIAM:

     Viva Goddard appeals from the district court’s order granting

the Commissioner of the Social Security Administration’s motion for

judgment on the pleadings on her claims for disability insurance

benefits. We have reviewed the record, the briefs, and the district

court’s opinion accepting the recommendation of the magistrate

judge and find no reversible error.      Accordingly, we affirm on the

reasoning of the district court.       See Goddard v. Barnhart, No. CA-

00-491-2 (S.D.W. Va. Aug. 7, 2001). 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
