ORDER
JAMES C. FOX, District Judge.
This matter is before the court on plaintiff’s motion for an award of attorney’s fees pursuant to the Equal Access to Justice Act (EAJA), 28 U.S.C. § 2412(d)(1)(B). On January 17, 1986, plaintiff moved for EAJA attorney’s fees in the amount of $2,718.75. Defendant has responded to plaintiff’s petition, thus, this matter is now ripe for disposition.
This civil action was filed on April 25, 1985 after defendant administratively denied, in part, plaintiff’s application for a period of disability and disability insurance benefits under Sections 216(i) and 223(a)…
