Description
This is the second time we have reviewed this Social Security case concerning the reopening of earlier claims decided fifteen years ago. Our earlier decision was Gosnell v. Califano, 625 F.2d 744 (6th Cir. 1980). The appeal this time presents the issue of whether the Secretarys refusal to reopen two of plaintiff William F. Gosnells prior applications for Social Security disability benefits constitutes a violation of the due process clause of the Fifth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. The District Judge dismissed the complaint because he concluded that plaintiff had failed to raise a colorable constitutional claim. We find that Gosnells complaint does not state a valid cause of action under the due process clause, and accordingly we affirm the District Courts decision.
