Description
In 1970, Mrs. Irma L. Wokojance applied to the Social Security Administration for widows disability insurance benefits under 42 U.S.C. § 402(e). Mrs. Wokojances claim was disallowed by the Administration on the ground that she was not disabled within the meaning of 42 U.S.C. § 423(d) and the regulations promulgated thereunder, 20 C.F.R. §Â§ 404.1504-06 and appendix to Subpart P. After a hearing, the administrative law judge similarly concluded that Mrs. Wokojance was not disabled, and the Appeals Council affirmed this determination, which constitutes the final decision of the Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare. Mrs. Wokojance subsequently filed an action in the District Court under 42 U.S.C. § 405(g), alleging that the administrative decision was not supported by substantial evidence and that § 423(d)(2)(B) violates the due process clause of the fifth amendment. District Judge Joseph P. Kinneary rejected both contentions, granting the Secretarys motion for summary judgment. This appeal followed.
