Magwood v. Astrue - ED Pa. - January 21, 2009

Government's position was not substantially justified where it was contrary to clearly established law concerning step 2 (severity) of the disability evaluation process. The government's prior "string of successes" before a 3d Cir. reversal was not enough to satisfy its burden.
A fee of $12,275.21 was awarded (68.30 hours at a rate of $176.23, plus $238.70 for expenses)
