PER CURIAM.


     Patricia Elliott appeals the district court's grant of summary
judgment affirming the Commissioner's decision to deny Elliott a waiver of
an overpayment of supplemental security income benefits.      After careful
review of the parties' briefs and the administrative record, we affirm for
the reasons stated in the magistrate judge's recommendation adopted by the
district court.     See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
