31 CFR 6.5 - Standards for awards.
§ 6.5
Standards for awards.
(a)
A prevailing applicant may receive an award for fees and expenses incurred in
connection with the final disposition of a proceeding, unless (1) the
position of the agency was substantially justified, or (2) special circumstances
make the award unjust. No presumption arises that the agency's position was not
substantially justified simply because the agency did not prevail.
