**Docket Number:** 7835629
**Court:** United States District Court
**Date:** [Please insert the relevant date or year as needed]
**Overview:**
In the case of Sharleen Hoth v. Nancy Berryhill, the plaintiff, Sharleen Hoth, challenges a decision made by Nancy Berryhill, the Acting Commissioner of the Social Security Administration (SSA), regarding the denial of Hoth’s application for Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits.
**Background:**
Sharleen Hoth filed an application for SSDI benefits, claiming that she was unable to work due to various medical conditions. After a thorough review of her application and medical records, the SSA denied her claim, determining that Hoth did not meet the necessary criteria for disability. In response, Hoth sought a review of this decision, arguing that the SSA failed to properly evaluate her medical evidence and assess her functional limitations.
**Legal Issues:**
The primary legal issues in this case include:
1. Whether the SSA's decision to deny SSDI benefits was supported by substantial evidence.
2. Whether the administrative law judge (ALJ) properly evaluated Hoth’s medical records and the testimony of treating physicians.
3. Whether the SSA adequately considered the combined effect of Hoth's impairments.
**Arguments:**
- **Plaintiff (Hoth's Argument):** Hoth contends that her medical conditions severely limit her ability to perform any substantial gainful activity. She argues that the ALJ failed to give appropriate weight to the opinions of her treating physicians and did not sufficiently consider the impact of her conditions when making the denial decision.
- **Defendant (Berryhill's Argument):** Berryhill defends the decision of the ALJ, asserting that the denial was based on a thorough examination of the evidence on record, and that there was substantial evidence to support the conclusion that Hoth was not disabled under Social Security regulations.
**Outcome:**
