Description

Appellant Jane Toler (Toler) instituted suit against the Secretary of Health and Human Services*fn1 for disabled widow's benefits under Title II of the Social Security Act (Act), contending that she had been disabled since July 15, 1985. See 42 U.S.C.A. §§ 401-433 (West 1986 & Supp. 1994). An Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) convened a hearing on Toler's suit and concluded that Toler could perform light work and was therefore not disabled. The Appeals Council denied her petition for review, so Toler filed suit in district court. The district Judge referred the case to a magistrate Judge, see 28 U.S.C.A. § 636(b)(1) (West 1993), who recommended that the ALJ's order be affirmed. After de novo review, see id., the district Judge accepted the magistrate Judge's recommendation and entered summary judgment in favor of the Secretary. Toler appeals, and we affirm.
