VAN OOSTERHOUT,
Senior Circuit Judge, dissenting.
I respectfully dissent. In my view all of plaintiff’s contentions for disability insurance were fully and fairly considered in the administrative proceedings. The United States Magistrate in his recommendations, which were approved and adopted by Judge Meredith, analyzes the evidence and findings of the administrative law judge in detail. The credibility findings of the administrative law judge, who saw and heard the witnesses, are entitled to great respect. I am not persuaded that his findings, which were approved by the Appeals Council, the magistrate and Judge Meredith, lack substantial evidentiary support or were induced by any erroneous view of the law.
I would affirm the judgment of dismissal.
