How courts have described this case

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

• “There is no basis to assert that SSR96-9 requires a finding of disability in cases where a claimant is unable to stoop.”
• “SSRs are interpretive rulings intended to offer guidance to agency adjudicators. While they do not have the force of law or properly promulgated notice and comment regulations, the agency makes SSRs ‘binding on all components of the Social Security Administration.’”
