Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the issues of entitlement to an initial rating in excess of 10 percent for limitation of flexion and 30 percent for limitation of extension for left knee joint osteoarthritis, as well as service connection for a sleep disability secondary to the left knee condition.
The deciding factor: The examination reports are inadequate due to inconsistencies with the Veteran's testimony and lack of compliance with certain legal requirements.
