                Plaintiff-Appellant,

    Commissioner, Social Security
    Administration, *

                Defendant-Appellee.


                             ORDER AND JUDGMENT **


Before EBEL, HENRY, and MURPHY, Circuit Judges.


         After examining the briefs and appellate record, this panel has determined

unanimously to grant the parties’ request for a decision on the briefs without oral

argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(f) and 10th Cir. R. 34.1.9. The case is

therefore ordered submitted without oral argument.

      John J. Callahan, Acting Commissioner for the Social Security
Administration, is substituted for the former commissioner, Shirley S. Chater.
See Fed. R. App. P. 43(c).

      This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the
doctrines of law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. The court
generally disfavors the citation of orders and judgments; nevertheless, an order
and judgment may be cited under the terms and conditions of 10th Cir. R. 36.3.
      Plaintiff appeals from the magistrate judge’s affirmance, see 28 U.S.C.

§ 636(c)(1) & (3), of the Secretary’s 1 denial of disability benefits and

supplemental income. Plaintiff asserted he had been disabled, since November 1,

1992, from pain in his neck, shoulders, back and legs. The administrative law

judge (ALJ) determined, at step four of the applicable five-step sequential

analysis, see 20 C.F.R. §§ 404.1520, 416.920, that plaintiff remained capable of

performing his past light delivery work and his past sedentary work as a telephone

clerk. After considering additional evidence, the Appeals Council denied review,

making the ALJ’s determination the Secretary’s final decision. See generally

O’Dell v. Shalala, 

, 859 (10th Cir. 1994) (additional evidence

submitted to Appeals Council becomes part of administrative record reviewed on

appeal).

      This court reviews the Secretary’s decision only to insure that the record

contains substantial evidence supporting her factual findings and that she applied

the law correctly. See Bean v. Chater, 

, 1213 (10th Cir. 1995). At

step four, plaintiff bears the burden of establishing that he cannot perform his

      Effective March 31, 1995, the functions of the Secretary of Health and
Human Services in social security cases were transferred to the Commissioner of
Social Security. P.L. No. 103-296. In the text, however, we continue to refer to
the Secretary because she was the appropriate party at the time of the underlying
administrative decision.

past relevant work. See Henrie v. United States Dep’t of Health & Human Servs.,

, 360 (10th Cir. 1993).

      On appeal, plaintiff argues that the Secretary, in determining that plaintiff

possessed the residual functional capacity (RFC) to perform his past relevant light

and sedentary work, failed to make a proper RFC determination, improperly found

plaintiff’s complaints to lack credibility, failed to consider all of plaintiff’s

limitations, and failed to develop the record as to the demands of his past relevant

work. Upon consideration of the record and the parties’ briefs, we affirm.

      The ALJ applied the appropriate step-four analysis to determine whether

plaintiff could perform his past relevant work. See Winfrey v. Chater, 

, 1023-26 (10th Cir. 1996); 

. Further, substantial

evidence in the record supported the ALJ’s factual findings underlying his

step-four analysis, including the ALJ’s credibility determinations, see 

.

      The judgment of the United States District Court for the Northern District

of Oklahoma is, therefore, AFFIRMED.
