United States Court of Appeals, Seventh Circuit.

Decided March 5, 1979.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Frank M. Tuerkheimer, U. S. Atty., Madison, Wis., Morton Hollander, Chief, Appellate Section, U. S. Dept. of Justice, Frederic D. Cohen, Civil Division, U. S. Dept. of Justice, Washington, D. C., for defendant-appellant.

Robert N. Williams, pro se.

Before SWYGERT, CUMMINGS and TONE, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.

This is an appeal from a default judgment entered against the defendant, the Secretary of HEW, in a proceeding brought to review the Secretary's denial of retirement insurance benefits. The Secretary alleges that the trial court erred in substituting the standard set by Fed.R.Civ.P. 55(e) for default against the United States for the standard of review in Social Security Act cases, as established by 42 U.S.C. § 405(g).1
