United States Court of Appeals, Eighth Circuit.

Filed: May 4, 2004.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

E. Gregory Wallace, argued, Buies Creek, NC (Anthony W. Bartels, Jonesboro, AR, on the brief), for appellant.

Richard A. Gilbert, Jr., Assistant Regional Attorney, Office of General Counsel, Social Security Administration, argued, Dallas, TX (Tina M. Waddell and Michael McGaughran of the SSA Dallas Office, on the brief), for appellee.

Before MELLOY, RICHARD S. ARNOLD, and SMITH, Circuit Judges.


MELLOY, Circuit Judge.

Annie Garrett, on behalf of her minor child, Myron Moore, appeals a judgment affirming the denial of her claim for Supplemental Security Income ("SSI") under Title XVI of the Social Security Act, 42 U.S.C. §§ 1381-1383f. Because the administrative law judge ("ALJ") failed to properly assess the impact of Myron's repeated suicide attempts when considering Myron's personal functioning, we reverse and remand.
