PER CURIAM:
Samuel Litvin Michaels appeals the district court’s order accepting the
recommendation of the magistrate judge and upholding the Commissioner of Social
Security’s denial of disability insurance benefits and supplemental security income. We
have reviewed the parties’ briefs, the joint appendix, and the administrative record and
find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district
court. Michaels v. Berryhill, No. 3:15-cv-00388-RJC-DSC (W.D.N.C. filed Sept. 26,
2016 and entered Sept. 27, 2016). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and
legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument
would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
