United States Sixth Circuit
Wright-Hines v. Comm'r of Soc. Sec., 08-5830
Denial of plaintiff's claims for supplemental security income and disability insurance benefits is affirmed where: 1) the ALJ noted that a written report from the vocational expert (VE) was consistent with his conclusion that plaintiff was capable of performing past relevant work as a cashier; 2) ALJ never posed a hypothetical question to the VE; 3) ALJ's determination that plaintiff had past relevant work as a cashier was supported by substantial evidence; and 4) plaintiff's argument that the district court erred in denying her motion for default judgment under Fed. Civ. Rule 55 is without merit.
