What later courts said
- holding that a claimant’s failure “to give maximum or consistent effort during two physical capacity evaluations” supported the ALJ’s adverse credibility finding — Robert Sherman v. Carolyn W. Colvin (2014)
- holding that 10 inconsistencies between subjective complaints and objective medical evidence is a clear 11 and convincing reason for discounting claimant’s testimony — (untitled) (2026)
- holding that a claimant’s failure to give “maximum or consistent effort” during physical capacity 4 examinations was a “compelling” reason to reject her testimony — V.A. v. Andrew Saul (2020)

How the opinion begins
RAWLINSON, Circuit Judge.
Appellant Maureen Thomas appeals the district court’s order affirming the Social Security Administration Commissioner’s (“Commissioner’s”) decision denying Thomas’ application for Supplemental Security Income benefits. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291.
See Tackett v. Apfel, 180 F.3d 1094, 1097 (9th Cir.1999). Because substantial evidence supports the Commissioner’s decision to deny Appellant benefits, we affirm.
