Doug N. Zoltani,

Case No. 3:11CV1900

Plaintiff
v.

ORDER

Defendant
Michael J. Astrue, Commissioner,

This is a social security case in which, following referral to the Magistrate Judge, the
Magistrate Judge has filed a Report and Recommendation recommending that plaintiff’s counsel
be awarded $2,857.40, as and for attorneys’ fees and costs. (Doc. 25).
The defendant has indicated that it has no objection to the Magistrate Judge’s
recommendation, aside from a standing objection to certain earlier decisions rejecting his
contention that a I impose a cap of $125/hour.
On de novo review, I abide by my former rulings, and find the Magistrate Judge’s
recommendation well-taken.

It is, accordingly,
ORDERED THAT judgment be entered in favor the plaintiff and against the defendant
for attorney’s fees of $2,857.40, and costs of $20.50, for a net award of $2,877.90.
So ordered.
/s/ James G.Carr
Sr. U.S. District Judge
