The following excerpt is from Arnone v. Bowen, 882 F.2d 34 (2nd Cir. 1989):
To summarize, Arnone cannot obtain disability insurance benefits unless he is eligible for a "period of disability." He cannot be entitled to a "period of disability" unless his back problem rendered him disabled beginning no later than March 1977 and continuing at least until January 1980. Cf. Henry v. Gardner, 381 F.2d 191, 195 (6th Cir.), cert. denied, 389 U.S. 993, 88 S.Ct. 492, 19 L.Ed.2d 487 (1967).
