20 CIVIL 6183 (GRJ)
07-18-2022
MYRA QUEEN FELICIANO, Plaintiff, v. COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY, Defendant.
JUDGMENT FOR ATTORNEY'S FEES
It is hereby ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED: That for the reasons stated in the Court's Order dated July 18, 2022, Plaintiff is awarded attorney's fees under the EAJA in the amount of $10,331.10. The payment of attorney's fees is subject to any offsetting debt owed by the Plaintiff to the United States. Before the Commissioner shall be obligated to pay the EAJA fees and costs, the Commissioner must determine whether Plaintiff owes a debt to the government. In the event the United States Department of the Treasury determines that Plaintiff does not owe a federal debt, the Commissioner must then pay the fees directly to Plaintiff's counsel; accordingly, the case is closed.
