    Joan E. MARSHALL, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. Jo Anne B. BARNHARDT, Commissioner of Social Security, Defendant-Appellee.
    No. 02-2415.
    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.
    Submitted May 12, 2003.
    Decided May 21, 2003.
    
      Stephen F. Shea, Silver Spring, Maryland, for Appellant. Thomas M. DiBiagio, United States Attorney, John W. Sippel, Jr., Assistant United States Attorney, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellee.
    Before WILKINSON and SHEDD, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit Judge.
   Affirmed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.

PER CURIAM.

Joan E. Marshall seeks review of the magistrate judge’s order affirming the Commissioner’s denial of social security benefits. We affirm. We review the Commissioner’s final decision to determine whether it is supported by substantial evidence and whether the correct law was applied. Pass v. Chater, 65 F.3d 1200, 1203 (4th Cir.1995). We have reviewed the record and conclude the Commissioner’s decision is based upon substantial evidence. Accordingly, we affirm on the reasoning of the magistrate judge. See Marshall v. Barnhardt, No. CA-01-2211-DKC (D.Md. filed Sept. 27, 2002; entered Sept. 30, 2002). 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. 
      
      The parties consented to review by a magistrate judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c)(2) (2000).
