MEMORANDUM AND OPINION
TORRES, District Judge.
This case is before the Court for review of a Magistrate Judge’s “Order” granting the plaintiffs’ motion for an award of attorneys’ fees and costs against the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) and denying their motion for such an award against Corcoran Management Co., Inc. (“Corcoran”) pursuant to the Equal Access to Justice Act, 28 U.S.C. § 2412 (1988) (“EAJA”). For reasons hereinafter stated, the Court finds that the motion was properly denied as to Corcoran but erroneously granted as to HUD.
