No. 4:14CV01012 AGF

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff’s application for attorney’s fees, pursuant to the
Equal Access to Justice Act, 28 U.S.C. ' 2412(d). Plaintiff is the prevailing party in her action
challenging the Commissioner of Social Security’s denial of her application for disability
insurance benefits. The Commissioner has informed the Court that the parties have agreed to an
award of fees in the amount of $4,619.92. The Court’s review of the record indicates that this
amount is a reasonable and fair. Pursuant to Astrue v. Ratliff, 560 U.S. 586 (2010), fees must be
paid directly to Plaintiff.
Accordingly,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiff’s application for attorney’s fees is
GRANTED in the amount of $4,619.92, payable directly to Plaintiff. (Doc. No. 29.)
