Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Joseph T. McGinness, Cleveland, Ohio, for petitioner.

Robert E. Kirschman, Jr., Michael J. Denney, Paul L. Frieden, Elizabeth J. Shapiro, Cathryn Celeste Helm, U.S. Dept. of Labor, Office of Sol. and Benefits Review Bd., U.S. Dept. of Labor, Washington, D.C., for respondent.

Before COX and BIRCH, Circuit Judges, and ENGEL, Senior Circuit Judge.


PER CURIAM:

After wending its way through the statutory and regulatory black lung benefits scheme for more than two decades, this claim for benefits is before us on appeal from a decision of the Benefits Review Board (the Board), which reversed a decision of an administrative law judge (ALJ). Because the decision of the ALJ was not supported by substantial evidence in the record as a whole, we affirm the Board's decision.
