OPINION
BALDOCK, Senior Circuit Judge:
Petitioner Andrew Peter Cody asks us to reverse the district court’s denial of his petition for attorneys’ fees under the Equal Access to Justice Act, 28 U.S.C. § 2412(d)(1)(a), because the Government’s position was not substantially justified or, in the alternative, to remand for the district court to explain its rationale for denying the petition. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291 and affirm.
I
