The following excerpt is from Cairns v. Saul, No. 2:18-cv-2905 DB (E.D. Cal. 2020):

"The district court reviews the Commissioner's final decision for substantial evidence, and the Commissioner's decision will be disturbed only if it is not supported by substantial evidence or is based on legal error." Hill v. Astrue, 698 F.3d 1153, 1158-59 (9th Cir. 2012).
