This scheme concerns the adjudication of cases under the Equal Access to Justice Act (EAJA). These cases are normally processed within the Office of Administrative Law Judges. However, EAJA cases have their own procedural rules. Therefore, they are not merely a "case type" but a separate scheme.

Types of Adjudication: 
Type B
Comments/Notes on Related Schemes: 
The structure of this scheme mirrors that of the SECOOALJ0001 scheme. However, EAJA cases have distinct procedural rules set out separate in the CFR. Therefore, for purposes of clarity, they have been made their own scheme. SECOOALJ0004 and SECOSOFF0005 also share Appeal Level 1. SECOFFDI0003's hearing office is this scheme's appeals office.
