    On Petition for Review of an Order of the Benefits Review Board

    Submitted:   April 28, 2015                  Decided:   May 11, 2015

    Reinhalter, UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF LABOR, Washington, D.C.;
    Benjamin M. Mason, MASON, MASON, WALKER & HEDRICK, PC, Newport

    PER CURIAM:
    Francyne       J.   Cooper       seeks    review      of   the   Benefits       Review
    Board’s order affirming the administrative law judge’s orders
    denying her motion to set aside a settlement agreement under the
    Longshore     and    Harbor      Workers’          Compensation       Act,     
    33 U.S.C. §§ 901-950
     (2012), and denying reconsideration, and the Board’s
    order   denying      reconsideration.                Our   review      of    the     record
    discloses that the Board’s decisions are based upon substantial
    evidence and are without reversible error.                      Accordingly, we deny
    Cooper’s    motion       to   proceed     in       forma   pauperis      and      deny    the
    petition    for     review      for    the     reasons      stated     by    the     Board.
    Cooper v. Northrup Grumman Shipbuilding, Inc., BRB No. 14-0039
    (Aug. 5 & Oct. 7, 2014).              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.
    PETITION DENIED
