How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • recognizing that although the ALJ must carefully consider the claimant’s statements about his or her symptoms, the ALJ is not required to credit them
  • finding that an ALJ could properly provide little weight to one physician’s report in part because that doctor’s “assessments substantially relied on [the plaintiff’s] subjective self-reported symptoms and pain”
  • “A court may not weigh the evidence or substitute its own findings for the Commissioner's.”
  • “The weight due a medical opinion depends on a variety of factors, including the degree to which relevant evidence supports the opinion and whether it is consistent with the record as a whole.” (citing 20 C.F.R. § 404.1527(c)(3)–(4))
