UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

CARLA MORGAN,

Plaintiff,

v.

COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL 

SECURITY,

Defendant.

Case No. 1:12-CV-00470-LJO-SMS

ORDER ADOPTING FINDINGS AND 

RECOMMENDATIONS RE: PLAINTIFF’S 

MOTION FOR ATTORNEYS’ FEES

(ECF Nos. 41, 47) 

On June 22, 2016, the Magistrate Judge issued Findings and Recommendations (“F&Rs”) 

recommending that Plaintiff’s counsel’s motion for attorney’s fees pursuant to the Equal Access 

to Justice Act (“EAJA”), 28 U.S.C. § 2412, be granted. (Doc. 32.) The F&Rs were served on all 

parties appearing in the action and contained notice that any objections were to be filed within 

fourteen (14) days after service of the order. No objections were filed.

In accordance with the provisions of 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C), this Court has conducted 

a de novo review of the case. Having carefully reviewed the entire file, the Court concludes that 

the Magistrate Judge’s F&Rs are supported by the record and proper analysis.

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. The F&Rs, filed June 22, 2016 (ECF No. 47), are ADOPTED IN FULL; 

2. Plaintiff’s counsel’s motion for an award of attorney’s fees, pursuant to EAJA
