The Board has determined that the February 26, 1992 and January 15, 1993 rating decisions denying service connection for hepatitis and seizures, respectively, do not contain clear and unmistakable error (CUE).
The deciding factor: There was no CUE in the rating decisions as the correct facts were known at the time of decision issuance and the applicable regulations were correctly applied.

What this means for you
A final Board denial may be appealed to the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims, generally within 120 days of the Board mailing date. A Supplemental Claim with new and relevant evidence is a separate option. Another Higher-Level Review of the Board decision is not available. Check your own notice: this historical decision does not set your deadline.
What you can do next
Use your own notice and decision stage. A remanded issue is not a final court-appealable denial. VA review guidance and CAVC filing instructions (U.S. federal; reviewed October 7, 2026).
