How courts have described this case

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

• holding that new evidence was not material when it conflicted with medical records available to the ALJ
• finding that an ALJ’s decision to give a treating physician’s opinion little weight was supported by substantial evidence because it was not bolstered by the record as a whole
• holding new SSR did not apply because ALJ issued decision before SSR’s effective date
• noting that Washington limited its holding to “the specific circumstances of this case”
• finding that doctor’s medical form was not material evidence as it was inconsistent with medical evidence during the relevant time period and would not have changed the administrative result and therefore the Appeals Council did not have to consider it
• finding immaterial a physical capacities form that was contradicted by the doctor’s own medical records and other objective medical evidence
