Kaelin Criss,
Plaintiff,
v.
Commissioner, Social Security Administration,
Defendant.
O R D E R
Plaintiff initiated this action seeking judicial review of the
commissioner’s decision to deny social security benefits. Doc. 1.
After receiving a favorable decision on remand, counsel filed a
motion to recover attorney’s fees. Doc. 29. The magistrate judge
issued a report recommending that the motion be granted and that
movant be awarded the sum of $24,193.75, to be paid out of plain-
tiff’s past-due benefits. Doc. 33 at 4. Neither party objected to the
report.
When there have been no timely objections to a report, “the
court need only satisfy itself that there is no clear error on the face
of the record.” Fed. R. Civ. P. 72(b), advisory committee’s notes
to 1983 amendment. Having reviewed the record and being satis-
fied that there is no clear error, the court accepts the report’s find-
ings and recommendations. The court grants the motion for attor-
ney’s fees (Doc. 29). Movant Michael Kelly is awarded the sum
of $24,193.75, to be paid by the commissioner out of plaintiff’s
past-due benefits. Upon receipt, movant shall remit to plaintiff
the previously awarded EAJA fees in the amount of $8,274.61.
So ordered by the court on January 8, 2026.
