Description

Per Curiam. We have examined the briefs and record and affirm the decision of the district court. The Administrative Law Judges opinion is carefully reasoned and his decision that Mr. Cote was not disabled at any time before his insured status expired is, in our judgment, unassailable. We see no merit in the claimants arguments. First, it is beyond question that the ALJ did not mechanically -- and therefore improperly -- apply the Grid. Mr. Cotes quibbles about the ALJs passing reference to the Grid as a "framework" are beside the point. Where a claimant is impaired in his ability to sit or stand for long periods, the procedure at step five of the Secretarys sequential analysis is to obtain the opinion of a vocational expert, and that is exactly what the ALJ did here. His decision was based on, and more than adequately supported by, the vocational experts response to his hypothetical question.
