PER CURIAM:
Betty Deloris Jones appeals the district court’s order accept-
ing the recommendation of the magistrate judge and entering summary
judgment to the Commissioner in this action challenging the denial
of disability insurance benefits. We have reviewed the record,
briefs, and the district court’s opinion accepting the recommen-
dation of the magistrate judge and find no reversible error.
Therefore, we grant the motion to submit the case on the briefs and
affirm on the reasoning of the district court. See Jones v. Apfel,
No. CA-98-125-B (W.D. Va. Nov. 2, 1999). 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
