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

  • holding that an ALJ must “provide a ‘logical bridge’ between the evidence and his conclusions”
  • stating that “limiting a hypothetical to simple, repetitive work does not necessarily address deficiencies of concentration, persistence and pace”
  • explaining that limitation “to simple, repetitive work does not necessarily address deficiencies of [CPP]”
  • limiting claimant to repetitive tasks with simple instructions did not account for claimant’s depression-related problems
  • rejecting “the broad proposition that an ALJ may account generally for moderate limitations on concentration, persistence or pace by restricting the hypothetical to unskilled work.”
  • stating “[i]n most cases . . . employing terms like ‘simple, repetitive tasks’ on their own will not necessarily exclude from the VE’s consideration those positions that present significant problems of concentration, persistence and pace.”
