MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

This Social Security appeal is before the Court on the Report and Recommendation filed
by United States Magistrate Judge, C. Clifford Shirley [R. 39]. There have been no timely
objections to the Report and Recommendation, and enough time has passed since the filing of the
Report and Recommendation to treat any objections as having been waived. See 28 U.S.C. §
636(b)(1); Fed.R.Civ.P. 72(b).
After a careful review of this matter, the Court is in complete agreement with the
Magistrate Judge’s conclusion that Plaintiff’s motion for attorney fees under the Equal Access to
Justice Act, 28 U.S.C. § 2412, be granted, and that Plaintiff be awarded attorney fees of
$6,205.48, plus the filing fee of $350.00. Accordingly, the Court ACCEPTS IN WHOLE the
Report and Recommendation under 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1); Fed.R.Civ.P. 72(b).

It is

ORDERED, for the reasons stated in the Report and Recommendation, which the Court adopts

and incorporates into its ruling, that Plaintiff’s motion for attorney fees under the Equal Access
to Justice Act, 28 U.S.C. § 2412, [R. 30] is GRANTED, whereby Plaintiff is awarded attorney
fees of $6,205.48, plus the filing fee of $350.00.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
