Amie Reeves Plaintiff - Appellant v. Carolyn W. Colvin, Acting Commissioner of Social Security Administration Defendant - Appellee
Amie Reeves appeals the district court's 1 order affirming the denial of supplemental security income and disability insurance benefits. Upon de novo review, see Lott v. Colvin, 772 F.3d 546, 548-49 (8th Cir. 2014), we conclude that the two narrow issues Ms. Reeves identifies do not provide a basis for reversing the administrative law judge's (ALJ's) determination that she is not disabled. To warrant remand, a claimant must show prejudice from an error during administrative proceedings, see Samons v. Astrue, 497 F.3d 813, 821 (8th Cir. 2007); and an ALJ's failure to cite certain evidence does not indicate that the evidence was not considered, see Craig v. Apfel, 212 F.3d 433, 436 (8th Cir. 2000). The judgment of the district court is affirmed.
