JERRY J. KOWAL, Plaintiff, v. NANCY BERRYHILL, COMMISSIONER, SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION, Defendant.
ORDER
ANALISA TORRES, DISTRICT JUDGE
Having received no objections to the Report & Recommendation (the “R&R”) of the Honorable Stewart D. Aaron, ECF No. 45, the Court reviewed the R&R for clear error and found none, Santiago v. Colvin, 12 Civ. 7052, 2014 WL 1092967, at *1 (S.D.N.Y. Mar. 17, 2014).
The Court, therefore, ADOPTS the R&R in its entirety. Accordingly, the motion for attorneys' fees, ECF No. 37, is GRANTED in part, and DENIED in part. Plaintiff's attorney, Mark J. Keller, shall be awarded attorneys' fees of $ 23, 086.50, and the fees under the Equal Access to Justice Act, 28 U.S.C. § 2412, in the amount of $10,000, shall be returned to Plaintiff from the award made by the Court.
SO ORDERED.
