Other conditions Board decisions

The appeal is remanded to the RO for consideration of additional evidence.

The veteran's current left foot disorder was not related to active duty service.

The Board remands the claim for a VA examination to determine the nature and etiology of the veteran's back disability.

The Board denied the veteran's claims for increased evaluations for his service-connected disabilities, including status-post stress fractures of both feet and shin splints in the right leg, as well as a TDIU.

The veteran's death was not caused by a disability for which service connection had been established at the time of his death, and therefore, the claim for service connection for the cause of the veteran's death is denied. The appellant's claims for accrued benefits and nonservice-connected death pension are also denied.

The appellant did not have qualifying active service for purposes of VA nonservice-connected pension benefits.

The appeal for entitlement to restitution of nonservice-connected disability pension benefit payments in the amount of $16,085 is denied as a matter of law.

The Board found that the reduction of the veteran's nonservice-connected pension benefits, effective March 1, 2004, was proper due to an increase in his income from Social Security Administration benefits.

The appeal is remanded to the RO&IC via the Appeals Management Center for further development of evidence regarding the veteran's request for a waiver of his pension indebtedness.

The Board denied the veteran's request to reopen a claim for service connection for chronic postural back strain, as new and material evidence was not submitted.

The Board remands the veteran's claim for service connection for a bilateral foot condition to the RO for further development, including an examination.

The Board denied a compensable rating for residuals of a fracture of the right second metacarpal, finding that the veteran did not meet the criteria for a higher evaluation under the applicable diagnostic codes.

The appeal was dismissed due to the death of the appellant.

The veteran's claims for service connection and higher initial rating for PTSD, as well as special monthly compensation based on the anatomical loss of a creative organ, are being remanded for additional development.

The appeal is remanded to ensure the appellant receives proper notice in accordance with Hupp v. Nicholson, 21 Vet. App. 342 (2007).

The veteran withdrew the motion for revision of the June 2006 Board decision, and it was dismissed without prejudice to refiling.

The Board denied service connection for arthritis, a chronic skin disorder, and a chronic sinus disorder as the evidence did not support a finding that any of these conditions were related to the veteran's military service.

The Board found that there was no medical evidence to support the veteran's claim for a right hip disorder related to his military service, and denied the claim.
