PER CURIAM:

Teresa Oxendine Bell appeals the magistrate judge’s order

upholding the Commissioner’s denial of her application for 

disability insurance benefits.* Our review of the Commissioner’s 

determination is limited to evaluating whether the findings are 

supported by substantial evidence and whether the correct law 

was applied. See Mascio v. Colvin, 780 F.3d 632, 634 (4th Cir. 

2015). We have thoroughly reviewed the parties’ briefs, the 

administrative record, and the joint appendix, and we discern no 

reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm the magistrate judge’s 

judgment. Bell v. Colvin, No. 7:13-cv-00261-RN (E.D.N.C. Mar. 

16, 2015). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and 

legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials 

before this court and argument would not aid the decisional 

process. 

AFFIRMED

 * The parties consented to the jurisdiction of the 

magistrate judge.
