OPINION
JONES, District Judge.
The question in this case is whether a coal miner who suffered a back injury that did not involve force or impact to the body was properly held by the mine workers pension plan not to be qualified for a disability pension. Finding that substantial evidence supported the decision to deny pension benefits, I hold that the plan's decision was not an abuse of discretion and grant the defendants' motion for summary judgment.
