ORDER

STEVEN D. MERRYDAY, District Judge.

The plaintiff moves (Doc. 22) for an attorney's fee. A November 13, 2014 order (Doc. 23) refers the motion for a report and recommendation. The magistrate judge recommends (Doc. 24) granting the motion in part and awarding $6,014.50 in fees to the plaintiff's counsel if the plaintiff is not indebted to the Department of the Treasury. The plaintiff objects (Doc. 25) to the report and recommendation. A de novo review of the portions of the report and recommendation to which the plaintiff objects reveal that the plaintiff's objections are unfounded or unpersuasive. Accordingly, the plaintiff's objections (Doc. 25) are OVERRULED. The report and recommendation (Doc. 24) is ADOPTED. The plaintiff's motion for an attorney's fee (Doc. 22) is GRANTED IN PART. The clerk is directed to enter judgment awarding the plaintiff $6,014.50 in fees. The defendant must accept the plaintiff's assignment of these fees and pay them directly to the plaintiff's counsel if the Department of Treasury determines that the plaintiff does not owe a federal debt.

ORDERED.
