PER CURIAM:
Salil V. Desai appeals the district court’s order
affirming the Commissioner of Social Security’s decision denying
Social Security Disability and Supplemental Security Income
benefits. We must uphold the district court’s disability
determination if the decision is supported by substantial evidence
and the correct law was applied. See 42 U.S.C. § 405(g) (2000);
Craig v. Chater, 76 F.3d 585, 589 (4th Cir. 1996). We have
reviewed the record and the district court’s order and find no
reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the
district court. Desai v. Commissioner of Social Security, No. CA-
03-93 (W.D.N.C. Aug. 6, 2004). 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
