ORDER

This matter is before the Court on Plaintiff's unopposed motion for attorney fees under the Equal Access to Justice Act ("EAJA"), 28 U.S.C. § 2412(d) ("Motion"). (ECF No. 28.) The Court GRANTS the Motion.

In consideration thereof, the Court further ORDERS that Defendant pay to Plaintiff reasonable attorney's fees and expenses in the amount of $5,652.00. The Court further ORDERS that if, after receiving the Court's EAJA fee order, the Commissioner (1) determines upon effectuation of the Court's EAJA fee order that Plaintiff does not owe a debt that is subject to offset under the Treasury Offset Program, and (2) agrees to waive the requirements of the Anti-Assignment Act, the fees will be made payable to Plaintiff's attorney. However, if there is a debt owned under the Treasury Offset Program, the Commissioner cannot agree to waive the requirements of the Anti-Assignment Act, and the remaining EAJA fees after offset will be paid by a check made out to Plaintiff but delivered to Plaintiff's attorney.
