Montgomery, United States District Judge for the District of Minnesota, sitting by designation. decision. Dillon then filed this action, and the district court2 granted the Commissioner’s motion for summary judgment. Dillon appealed from the judgment, arguing that the district court erred in concluding that the ALJ’s decision is supported by substantial evidence. Based on our review of the record, we agree with the conclusion that there is substantial evidence to support the administrative decision and affirm on the basis of the district court’s opinion.
