IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE DISTRICT OF OREGON

PORTLAND DIVISION

TAMMY S.,

Plaintiff, No. 6:17-cv-01562-HZ

v. ORDER

COMMISSIONER, SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION,

Defendant.

Plaintiff Tammy S. brought this action seeking review of the Commissioner's final decision to deny Disability Insurance Benefits (DIB) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI). On November 10, 2018, I reversed the Commissioner’s decision and ordered that the case remanded for further administrative proceedings. Judgment was entered on November 10, 2018. On September 10, 2019, Plaintiff’s counsel received notice of Plaintiff’s award for benefits. Pl. Mot. Ex. B, ECF 23-2. Plaintiff now seeks an award of fees pursuant to

(b). Defendant has no objection to the request. I have reviewed the record in the case, the motion, and the supporting materials including the award of benefits, the fee agreement with counsel, and the recitation of counsel's hours and services. Applying the standards set by Gisbrecht v. Barnhart,

(2002), I find the requested fees reasonable. I grant the motion [23] and award Plaintiff's counsel $12,019.50 in attorney's fees under

(b). Previously, I awarded Plaintiff attorney's fees in the amount of $7,496.80 under the Equal Access to Justice Act (EAJA),

. When issuing the section 406(b) check for payment to Plaintiffs attorney, the Commissioner is directed to subtract the amount previously awarded under EAJA and send Plaintiff's attorney the balance of $4,522.70, less any applicable processing fees as allowed by statute. Any amount withheld after all administrative and court attorney's fees are paid should be released to the claimant. IT IS SO ORDERED.
