Granted
The Board found that the Veteran's February 2020 claim for revision of the September 1968 rating decision based on CUE was valid and directed the RO to accept it and adjudicate its merits.
The deciding factor: The Board determined that the February 2020 CUE motion raised a distinct theory of CUE from the prior December 2014 motion, which had been adjudicated in an October 2018 rating decision.
