PER CURIAM:
Barbara D. Gaither appeals the district court’s order
affirming the Commissioner’s denial of Gaither’s applications
for disability insurance benefits and supplemental security
income. We must uphold the Commissioner’s disability
determination if the decision is supported by substantial
evidence and the correct law was applied. See 42 U.S.C.
§ 405(g) (2006); 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. 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
