Partly granted
The veteran's appeal for a higher rating for thoracolumbar spine disability and right upper extremity radiculopathy was dismissed due to withdrawal. The claim for a rating in excess of 20 percent prior to January 16, 2020, for a thoracolumbar spine disability was denied.
The deciding factor: The veteran withdrew the appeals for increased ratings, and the Board found no errors of fact or law to review.
