    UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
    FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
    No. 05-2222
    DAPHNEY MONROE,
    Plaintiff - Appellant,
    versus
    COMMISSIONER, SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION,
    Defendant - Appellee.
    Appeal from the United States District        Court for the Middle
    District of North Carolina, at Durham.         James A. Beaty, Jr.,
    District Judge. (CA-04-231-1-JAB)
    Submitted:   March 31, 2006                 Decided:   April 26, 2006
    Before WILLIAMS, KING, and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges.
    Affirmed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
    Daphney Monroe, Appellant Pro Se.    Karen Beth Burzycki, SOCIAL
    SECURITY ADMINISTRATION, Boston, Massachusetts, for Appellee.
    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
    See Local Rule 36(c).
    PER CURIAM:
    Daphney    Monroe   appeals      the     district   court’s    order
    adopting the report and recommendation of a magistrate judge and
    affirming     the   Commissioner’s    denial        of   disability   insurance
    benefits and supplemental security income benefits. 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).   Having thoroughly reviewed the administrative record, we
    agree with the district court that substantial evidence supports
    the Commissioner’s final decision.           Accordingly, we affirm for the
    reasons stated by the district court.          See Monroe v. Commissioner,
    No. CA-04-231-1-JAB (M.D.N.C. Sept. 28, 2005).               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
