PER CURIAM:
Dorothy P. Glasscock seeks review of the Benefits Review Board’s decision and
order affirming the administrative law judge’s denial of black lung benefits pursuant to
30 U.S.C. §§ 901-945 (2012). Glasscock’s informal brief identifies no reversible error in
the Board’s decision. Accordingly, although we grant leave to proceed in forma
pauperis, we deny the petition for review. We dispense with oral argument because the
facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and
argument would not aid the decisional process.
PETITION DENIED
