Summary Calendar
CAROL L. MOON,
Plaintiff - Appellant,
v.
JO ANNE B. BARNHART, COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY,
Defendant - Appellee.
--------------------
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Northern District of Texas, Amarillo Division
USDC No. 2:03-CV-0203
--------------------
Before DeMOSS, STEWART and PRADO, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
Carol L. Moon (“Moon”) filed a claim under the Social
Security Act for Supplemental Security Income (“SSI”). The
Administrative Law Judge (“ALJ”) denied Moon’s claim and the
Appeals Council affirmed the decision of the ALJ. Treating the
decision of the Appeals Council as the final decision of the
Commissioner of Social Security, Moon filed suit in the district
court for the Northern District of Texas seeking judicial review
of the Commissioner’s decision. The case was referred to a

-- 1 of 2 --

Magistrate Judge for Report and Recommendation, and the
Magistrate Judge recommended that Moon’s petition for review be
denied. Moon filed objections to the Magistrate’s Report and the
district court, after review of Moon’s objections, adopted the
Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation and entered final
judgment denying any relief to Moon. Moon appeals to this Court.
Our review is limited to determining (1) whether there is
substantial evidence in the record as a whole to support the
Commissioner’s decision, and (2) whether the Commissioner’s
decision comports with relevant legal standards. Jones v. Apfel,
174 F.3d 692, 693 (5th Cir. 1999). We have carefully reviewed
the briefs, record excerpts, and relevant portions of the record
itself. For the reasons stated in the Magistrate Judge’s Report
and Recommendation, as adopted by the district court, we affirm
the decision of the district court to enter final judgment
against Moon.
AFFIRMED.
