Cases — June 18th through 24th
*Board of Education v. Henderson (10th Cir., June 19, 2017) (unhappy with the Navajo Nation’s determination that it had jurisdiction, the school district sought relief in federal court, which dismissed for lack of standing)
Workers Compensation/Occupational Safety and Disease
*Bell v. Social Security Administration (10th Cir., June 20, 2017) (affirming denial of social security benefits because Bell inadequately briefed her case: her arguments were little more than cursory statements without analysis)
*Kellams v. Berryhill (10th Cir., June 23, 2017) (reversing denial of disability and supplemental income benefits: the ALJ downplayed the severity of some evidence and failed to provide legitimate reasons for discounting medical source opinions)
*Cases marked with an asterisk are cases the 10th Circuit does not consider binding precedent except under the doctrines of law of the case, res judicata, or collateral estoppel. They may be cited, however, for persuasive value under Fed.R.App.P. 32.1 and 10th Cir.R. 32.1.
