See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

       Charlotte D. Potts appeals the district court’s order granting

summary judgment in favor of the Commissioner in her action seeking

judicial    review      of   the    Commissioner’s       decision    to   deny   her

application for disability insurance benefits.                    We have reviewed

the    record    and    the     district       court’s    order     accepting     the

recommendation of the magistrate judge and find no reversible

error.     Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the district

court.   See Potts v. Apfel, No. CA-00-865 (E.D. Va. Apr. 15, 2002).

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
