MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER

CAUTHRON, District Judge.

At issue is plaintiff’s appeal from the July 27, 1992, decision of United States Magistrate Judge Ronald L. Howland denying plaintiff's application for fees under the Equal Access to Justice Act (EAJA), 28 U.S.C. § 2412. The government opposed plaintiff’s request for fees, filing a brief in opposition to the fee application, but has not responded to the instant appeal. After de novo review of the record, this Court affirms the Magistrate Judge’s decision, and denies the instant “appeal.”
