PER CURIAM:

Connie J. Laishley appeals the magistrate judge’s order

affirming the Commissioner’s denial of disability insurance

benefits and supplemental security income.*

 We must uphold the

decision to deny benefits if the decision is supported by

substantial evidence and the correct law was applied. See 42

U.S.C. § 405(g) (2000); Craig v. Chater, 76 F.3d 585, 589 (4th Cir.

1996). We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error.

Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the magistrate

judge. See Laishley v. Astrue, No. 3:05-cv-00714 (S.D. W. Va.

Sept. 4, 2007). We dispense with oral argument because the facts

and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials

before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

AFFIRMED
