How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- noting that none of the physicians submitting medical evidence stated that the claimant \would be restored to a non- severe condition if she guit smoking\
- ALJ erred in determining that the plaintiff “could return to her former employment as a teleprinter because her daily activities are consistent with the ability to perform at least sedentary work.”
- “[I]t was illogical for the ALJ to conclude in his findings that Mrs. Rousey’s ‘allegations as to the severity of her chest pain is not credible in light of the fact that it does not prevent her from continuing to smoke a half-pack of cigarettes a day.’”
