Gilbert L. MARCUS v. the UNITED STATES
30 soc.sec.rep.ser. 582, unempl.ins.rep. Cch 15825a Gilbert L. Marcus v. United States
Opinion
NIES, Chief Judge.
Gilbert L. Marcus appeals from the Claims Court’s order, Marcus v. United States, No. 688-89 C (December 20, 1989) (Bruggink, J.), dismissing his claim for lack of jurisdiction. Although entitled a “Writ of Habeas Corpus Ad Respondum”, appellant seeks a reversal of the decision by the Commissioner of Social Security denying an award of social security disability benefits. Construing appellant’s pleading in a light most favorable to him, that is, as a claim for social security disability benefits, we hold that the Claims Court has no jurisdiction under the Tucker Act, 28 U.S.C. § 1491 (a)(1) (1988), over claims to social security benefits, even considering appellant’s assertions that he is entitled to relief under the Constitution.
See Weinberger v. Salfi, 422 U.S. 749, 756-767 , 95 S.Ct. 2457, 2462-2467 , 45 L.Ed.2d 522 (1975); ( 42 U.S.C. §§ 405 (g) and (h) (1982) require that action for social security benefits must be brought in district court);
cf. Alabama Hospital Ass’n v. United States, 228 Ct.Cl. 176 , 656 F.2d 606 (1981). The judgment of the Claims Court is, therefore, AFFIRMED.
