No. 10-30026 Report and Recommendation explained, see Bellow v. Astrue, No. 2:06-cv-920, slip op. (W.D. La. Sept. 30, 2009), the Administrative Law Judge ("ALJ") applied the proper legal standards, and the documentation provided by Bellow in support of her contention that she suffered from depression did not make necessary a consultative psychological or psychiatric examination in order to fully develop the record. There is substantial evidence to support the

Commissioner's conclusion that Bellow is not disabled. AFFIRMED.
