A. RICHARD CAPUTO, District Judge.

Presently before the Court is plaintiff Bryan's ("Bryan") motion for attorneys' fees (Doc. 24) pursuant to the Equal Access to Justice Act ("EAJA"). Defendant Astrue argues that plaintiff is not entitled to attorneys' fees because the government's position was "substantially justified." Because the court agrees with defendant's position, the motion for attorneys' fees will be denied.
