DIDN’T HAVE ISSUES WITH THIS ONE.
Your attorney is a fruitcake OR in the judges pocket. I NEVER should have been denied. Not 1 of my doctors can understand why.
My attorney told me this Judge takes no crap. If you have your things together you will do good!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Advice from some one who knows.
Based on my hearing, this judge needs to be reprimaned and FIRED!! I have numerous ailments ALL DIAGNOSED AND DOCUMENTED. I have been gainfully employed since the working paper age of 14, (now 50). I CANNOT STAND , SIT OR WALK for more than 10-15 mins at a time. FORGET lifting heavy objects. I also have COPD,CHF,SLEEP APNIA and NOW restricted from driving do to Narcolepsy. This POMPOUS ******* denied me. Even his Professionl Vocational Advisor said there was nothing else for me. HOW CAN HE BE ALLOWED TO DO THIS. How can I take care of my family?????
Judge Edwards dismissed my case for my SSD without a Hearing, “Request for Hearing Denied”. He explained DDS found my onset date to be later than my last insured date. Therefore, no hearing is needed. (?????????????????????????)
Ok where do I begin about this so called judge John Edwards. In May of this year I finally after in a half years got to have my social security disability hearing. Fisrt when I proceeded with my sworn testimony the judge snapped at me about my attempted suicide and was so rude and unprofessional I could’nt believe what I was hearing He said he did’nt believe that some could take 44 vicodin and live, he would not listen when I told him that I threw them up in a 24 hour period. The work advisor made sure I would be distacted also by his constent yawning and moaning and groaning throughout my hearing. So after the hearing my lawyer told me the judge would not vote in my favor. and I would have to reaply for my social security disability claim. So I had to call someone in the state to put a complaint in about this judge and found out some interesting news. Accourding to my source they have seen the transcript and the judge had some pretty horrible stuff about me in there. He does’nt even know me.
