ALJ erred in discrediting claimant's symptom testimony

Vasquez v. Astrue, No. 06-16817
A ruling upholding a denial of Social Security disability insurance benefits and supplemental security income benefits is vacated and remanded to the Commissioner of Social Security for a hearing on the issue of whether claimant was entitled to benefits where: 1) the ALJ erred in discrediting claimant's symptom testimony, and applying the credit-as-true rule, on remand the ALJ is instructed to accept her symptom testimony as true in determining whether she is entitled to benefits; and 2) for purposes of a finding of mental impairment, the ALJ should have been afforded an opportunity to consider additional evidence generated between the ALJ's decision and an Appeals Council hearing.

Rogers v. Comm'r of Soc. Sec., No. 05-4369
Denial of social security disability benefits to a claimant alleging she suffers from pain and other symptoms associated with fibromyalgia and rheumatoid arthritis is reversed where: 1) the reasons given for discounting the opinions of claimant's treating physicians and for finding her subjective complaints not credible were insufficient to constitute substantial evidence; and 2) consequently, a residual functional capacity assessment (RFC) and its use in concluding claimant could return to her past relevant work were also flawed.

onset date ambigous

Blea v Barnhart, No. 05-2246 (10th Cir. October 23, 2006)Denial of an application for disability insurance benefits under Title II of the Social Security Act is reversed and remanded where the onset date of claimant's disabilities, which arose from his being shot in the foot, was ambiguous, the ALJ erred by failing to utilize SSR 83-20 to infer an onset date, and the ALJ should have addressed lay witness testimony in his written decision. http://laws.lp.findlaw.com/10th/052246.html
