THIS MATTER is before the Court on the Stipulation of Award of Attorney Fees under the Equal Access to Justice Act, (Doc. 23), filed 10/11/`, in which the parties stipulate to awarding Plaintiff EAJA fees in the amount of $5,300.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Plaintiff be awarded $5,300 in attorney fees pursuant to the Equal Access to Justice Act, 28 U.S.C. § 2412(d). See Astrue v. Ratliff, 560 U.S. 586, 591-93 (2010) (EAJA fees are paid to the prevailing party, not the attorney).
