• delaying consideration of fee petition until denial of petition for certiorari
• disagreeing with McQuiston and interpreting “final judgment” to mean final and unappealable
• “The term ‘final judgment,’ which appears 151 times in the United States Code, does not have a single fixed meaning.”
• “The legislative history indicates and the government concedes that the 30-day provision in the Act was meant to establish a deadline, not a starting point.”
