ENSINGER v. DIRECTOR, OFFICE OF WKRS' COMPENSATION

No. 87-1364.

833 F.2d 678 (1987)

Virginia ENSINGER, Petitioner, v. DIRECTOR, OFFICE OF WORKERS' COMPENSATION PROGRAMS, UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF LABOR, Respondent.

United States Court of Appeals, Seventh Circuit.

Decided November 12, 1987.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Howard B. Eisenberg, Carbondale, Ill., for petitioner.

J. Michael O'Neill, Appellate Litigation, U.S. Dept. of Labor, Office of the Solicitor, Bruce A. McDonald, Washington, D.C., for respondent.

Before WOOD, COFFEY and RIPPLE, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.

Petitioner, Virginia Ensinger, the ex-wife of a former coal miner, was denied benefits under the Black Lung Benefits Act, 30 U.S.C. § 901 et seq. The Department of Labor's Benefits Review Board affirmed the denial. Ensinger petitions this court for review of the Board's order. Because we conclude that the Board correctly determined that Ensinger does not qualify as a dependent divorced spouse, we deny her petition.
