UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
EASTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN
JASON TODD GAMBLE,
Plaintiff,
Case No. 17-cv-964
v.
NANCY A. BERRYHILL,
Acting Commissioner for Social Security,
Defendant.
ORDER APPROVING STIPULATION AWARDING ATTORNEY’S FEES
Based upon the foregoing Stipulation and the Court’s finding that the fees incurred are
both reasonable and necessary and qualify under EAJA,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that an award of attorney fees in the sum of $5,700.00 (five
thousand seven hundred dollars and zero cents) and costs in the amount of $0.00 (zero dollars
and zero cents) shall be paid by Defendant in full satisfaction and settlement of any and all
claims Plaintiff may have pursuant to the Equal Access To Justice Act. These fees are awarded
to Plaintiff and not his attorney and can be offset to satisfy pre-existing debts that the litigant
owes the United States under Astrue v. Ratliff, 130 S. Ct. 2521, 177 L. Ed 2d 9 (2010). If counsel
for the parties verify that Plaintiff owes no pre-existing debt subject to offset, the Defendant shall
direct that the award be made payable to Plaintiff’s attorney pursuant to the EAJA assignment
duly signed by Plaintiff and counsel.
Dated this 16th day of August, 2018, at Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
BY THE COURT:
