Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's motion for clear and unmistakable error (CUE) in a May 28, 1971 decision on the grounds that it did not explicitly consider entitlement to a 10 percent disability rating pursuant to 38 C.F.R. § 3.324 (1970).
The deciding factor: The Board found no clear and unmistakable error as the May 28, 1971 decision was based on the record and law existing at that time.
