Richardson v. Perales 402 U.S. 389 (1971) was a case heard by the United States Supreme Court to determine and delineate several questions concerning administrative procedure in Social Security disability cases. Among the questions considered was the propriety of using physicians’ written reports generated from medical examinations of a disability claimant and whether these could constitute substantial evidence supportive of finding nondisability under the Social Security Act.
