ORDER APPROVING STIPULATION FOR ATTORNEY FEES UNDER THE EQUAL ACCESS TO JUSTICE ACT
CARMEN E. GARZA, Chief Magistrate Judge.
THIS MATTER is before the Court on the parties' Stipulated Motion for Award of Attorney Fees Under the Equal Access to Justice Act ("Stipulated Motion"), (Doc. 29), filed February 7, 2020. In the Stipulated Motion, the parties agree to an award of Equal Access to Justice Act ("EAJA") fees in the amount of $6,940. (Doc. 29 at 1).
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that Defendant shall pay Plaintiff $6,940 pursuant to the EAJA, 28 U.S.C. § 2412(d). If, after receiving the Court's EAJA fee order, the Commissioner (1) determines 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 owed 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.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
