United States Ninth Circuit

In a claim for disability insurance, district court's judgment affirming the Social Security Administration's decision finding that petitioner's disability had ended due to medical improvement is reversed and remanded, as the ALJ erred in relying solely on the Department of Veterans Affairs' 2001 decision that only proposed changes, while ignoring other decisions by the VA that rejected the proposed changes recommended in the 2001 decision.
