How Judge McCoy decides

Patterns drawn from this judge's own signed orders. Every observation links to the order it came from.

What persuades

In Stevens v. Commissioner of Social Security, McCoy affirmed a benefits denial after finding substantial evidence supported the administrative law judge's assessment of the claimant's frequent bathroom use and subjective symptoms related to psychogenic polydipsia.

“Accordingly, the ALJ’s subjective symptom determination is supported by substantial evidence and the ALJ’s decision is due to be affirmed as to this issue.”

A snapshot on that date: matters listed may since have been decided or reassigned. A motion referred to a magistrate judge is counted for both judges. Motions in multidistrict litigation, section 2255 cases and Social Security appeals are not counted, and a very large three-year count is generally a multidistrict docket.
