1Opinion of the Court
FRIEDMAN, Senior Circuit Judge.
In this government contract case, in which the Court of Federal Claims held that the government had breached the contract, the contractor’s cross-appeal challenges the court’s ruling that he had not proven that the government’s breach had resulted in lost profits for him. The government’s appeal challenges the district court’s award to the contractor, under the Equal Access to Justice Act, 28 U.S.C. § 2412, of attorneys fees of $110,000 in a case in which the contractor recovered damages of $400.
