Denial of social security disability claims reversed

In Spiva v. Astrue, 10-2083, the court reversed and remanded the district court’s affirmance of a denial of plaintiff’s application for social security disability claim as, an ALJ is required to determine whether, despite his limitations, the applicant for benefits can do his previous work, and here, the ALJ made no finding concerning what jobs plaintiff might be capable of doing besides his previous job at Walmart, and how many such jobs might be available in the Milwaukee area.
