Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit July 17, 1990, 89-5278 (Ava P. Trahan v. Nicholas F. Brady, Secretary of the Treasury)

Opinion for the Court filed by Circuit Judge SENTELLE.

SENTELLE, Circuit Judge:

This is an appeal from the denial of an application for attorneys’ fees under the Equal Access to Justice Act (“EAJA”), 28 U.S.C. § 2412(d). Because we find that the District Court did not abuse its discretion in concluding that the government’s position in the underlying dispute was substantially justified, we affirm.
