R. 47.5.4. IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT

No. 01-10496 Summary Calendar DEBRA L. JOY, Plaintiff-Appellant, versus LARRY G. MASSANARI, COMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY, Defendant-Appellee. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas (USDC No. 1:00-CV-109-C) September 27, 2001 Before REAVLEY, HIGGINBOTHAM and WIENER, Circuit Judges.

REAVLEY, Circuit Judge: * Claimant-appellant Debra L. Joy appeals the denial of her application for Social Security disability benefits. We review findings of the Social Security Commissioner for substantial evidence. See Martinez v. Chater , 64 F.3d 172, 173 (5th Cir. 1995). The evaluations provided by occupational therapist Thibault, as well as doctors Daggubati, Westwick, Follender and Steele, provide substantial evidence to support the ALJÂ’s finding that Joy was not disabled.

AFFIRMED.
