Heading: Commissioner’s timely adjudication

Text: Webster claims that the Commissioner violated Heckler v. Day by failing to adjudicate his claim within a specified time frame. This argument has no merit. There is no statute or case law that requires the Commissioner to resolve a social security claim within a certain number of days. See Heckler v. Day, 467 U.S. 104, 119 (1984) (“[I]t it would be an unwarranted judicial intrusion into this pervasively regulated area for federal courts to issue injunctions imposing deadlines with respect to future disability claims.”); see also Jimenez v. Halter, No. 00-50366, 2001 WL 300646, at  (5th Cir. Feb. 28, 2001) (“There are no deadlines for resolving Social Security cases.”).
