Before FAGG, ROSS, and BEAM, Circuit Judges.
                           _____________

PER CURIAM.

       Sandra Martell, for her son Scott Poitra, a minor, appeals the district court's grant
of summary judgment affirming the Social Security Commissioner's decision to deny
Poitra supplemental security income disability benefits. After careful review of the
administrative record and the parties' briefs, we conclude substantial evidence supports
the decision of the Commissioner that Poitra is not disabled for social security purposes
and the judgment of the district court is correct. Because the case presents no novel
issues, we affirm the district court without further discussion. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
