ORDER for ATTORNEY’S FEES
SISON, Magistrate Judge:
This matter comes before the Court on the parties’ application for attorney’s fees
under the Equal Access to Justice Act (“EAJA”), 28 U.S.C. § 2412. (Doc. 38). Defendant does
not oppose the amount of the fee requested. Id. Based on the pleadings, it is hereby
ORDERED that Plaintiff is awarded $10,900.00 for attorney’s fees and expenses in full
satisfaction of any and all claims for attorney’s fees and expenses that may be payable to
Plaintiff in this matter under the EAJA.
Any fees paid belong to Plaintiff and not Plaintiff’s attorney and can be offset to
satisfy any pre-existing debt that the litigant owes the United States per Astrue v. Ratliff,
560 U.S. 586 (2010). If Defendant can verify that Plaintiff does not owe a pre-existing debt
to the government subject to the offset, Defendant will direct that the award be made
