Schwarzer, J.
MEMORANDUM OF OPINION AND ORDER
On August 12, 1987, plaintiff filed this motion for summary judgment, under 42 U.S.C. § 405 (g), seeking disability insurance benefits and supplemental security income under Titles II and XVI of the Social Security Act, for the period of May 1, 1982 to March 12, 1984.
BACKGROUND OF THE CLAIM
Plaintiff filed applications for disability insurance and SSI benefits on June 23, 1982, alleging disability beginning May 1, 1982. These applications were denied administratively. Plaintiff then requested a hearing before an AU, which was held on July 18, 1983. On December 29, 1983, the ALJ who conducted the hearing issued a decision finding plaintiff did not have impairments sufficiently severe to be considered disabling under the Social Security Act and regulations. This decision was affirmed by the Social Security Appeals Council on April 5, 1984, thereby becoming the final decision of the Secretary.
Plaintiff sought judicial review pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 405 (g). On February 11, 1985, this Court upheld the Secretary’s final decision in a memorandum of opinion and order. Hall v. Heckler, 602 F.Supp. 1169 (N.D.Cal.1986).
