IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that if, after receiving this order, the Commissioner:
(1) determines that plaintiff does not owe a debt that is subject to offset under the Treasury
Offset Program, and (2) agrees to waive the requirements of the Anti-Assignment Act, then
the check for the fees awarded herein will be made payable to plaintiff’s attorney pursuant
to the assignment executed by plaintiff. However, if there is a debt owed under the Treasury
Offset Program, the Commissioner cannot agree to waive the requirements of the Anti-
Assignment Act, and any remaining Equal Access to Justice Act fees after offset will be
paid by a check made out to plaintiff but delivered to plaintiff’s attorney.
Dated this 19th day of May, 2026.
