Crane

MEMORANDUM ***

Donald Charles Crane appeals the district court’s summary judgment affirming the Commissioner of Social Security’s denial of Crane’s application for disability insurance benefits and supplemental security income benefits under Titles II and XVI of the Social Security Act, 42 U.S.C. §§ 401-433 , 1381-1383f.
