This matter comes before the Court on the parties’ stipulated motion for attorney fees and

16

costs under the Equal Access to Justice Act (“EAJA”), 28 U.S.C. § 2412 (Dkt. No. 27). Plaintiff

17

prevailed on appeal of final agency action and is entitled to an award of attorney fees. (See Dkt.

18

Nos. 23, 24.) Accordingly, the Court GRANTS the parties’ motion and awards attorney fees in

19

the sum of $2,194.70 and costs in the sum of $20.70, for a total of $2,215.40. If the Department

20

of the Treasury determines that Plaintiff’s EAJA fees are not subject to any offset allowed under

21

the Department’s Offset Program, then the check for attorney fees and costs shall be made

22

payable to Plaintiff’s attorney, Harvey S. Grad, based upon Plaintiff’s assignment of these

23

amounts to counsel. The check shall be mailed to Harvey S. Grad at the following address:

24

HARVEY GRAD, PS, 1218 Third Avenue, Suite 1000, Seattle, WA 98101.
