On this 10th day of January, 2008, the court has before it for consideration plaintiff's

amended request for attorney's fees and costs pursuant to the Equal Access to Justice Act (EAJA),

28 U.S.C. § 2412. (Doc. # 16). For reasons set forth in the Report and Recommendation filed by the

Honorable James R. Marschewski, United States Magistrate Judge for the Western District of

Arkansas, on November 29, 2007, the court finds that the Magistrate's recommendations should be

adopted in toto and hereby awards plaintiff's attorney fees in the amount of $719.82, representing

3.20 attorney hours, at the hourly rate of $140.00, 3.52 paralegal hours, at the hourly rate of $65.00,

and for $43.02 in expenses. This amount shall be paid in addition to, and not out of, any past-due

benefits plaintiff may be awarded in the future. This court finds plaintiff’s motion for fees and costs

pursuant to the EAJA dated August 28, 2007 (Doc. # 11), is DENIED as moot.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
