ORDER GRANTING PLAINTIFF'S MOTION FOR ATTORNEY FEES
On July 28, 2010, plaintiff's counsel filed a motion requesting attorney fees under 42 U.S.C. § 406(b). Thereafter, an Addendum to Counsel's Motion was filed on August 25, 2010 reducing the originally requested fee to $15,500.00. The motion notes that $3,750.00 has already been paid toward that amount. On September 1, 2010, the government filed a response indicating that it does not object to plaintiff's request.
According, it is ORDERED that plaintiff's motion for attorney fees is GRANTED. Plaintiff is awarded $15,500.00 in attorney fees and costs. The payment should reflect amounts previously paid as noted above.
