Before the Court is the Report and Recommendation of United States Magistrate Gary M. Purcell entered November 16, 2018 [Doc. No. 23]. No objection to the Report and Recommendation has been filed nor has an extension of time in which to object been sought or granted.

No. 20] is GRANTED in the amount of $5,265.40, payable directly to Plaintiff. In the event the EAJA fees awarded to Plaintiff are paid to Plaintiff's counsel and Plaintiff's counsel later recovers fees pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 406(b), Plaintiff's counsel should be required to refund the smaller award of attorney's fees to Plaintiff.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
