ORDERED that the Court hereby awards Plaintiff $4,000.00 in attorney fees under
the EAJA, 28 U.S.C. ' 2412. It is further
ORDERED that if, after receiving the Court's EAJA fee order, the Commissioner
(1) determines upon effectuation of the Court's EAJA fee order that Plaintiff does not owe
a debt that is subject to offset under the Treasury Offset Program, and (2) agrees to waive
the requirements of the Anti-Assignment Act, the fees will be made payable to Plaintiff's

Commissioner cannot agree to waive the requirements of the Anti-Assignment Act, and
the remaining EAJA fees after offset will be paid by a check made out to Plaintiff but
