Partly granted
The Board partially vacated its July 11, 2024 decision, vacating the portion that denied service connection for the cause of death.
The deciding factor: The appellant had properly opted to pursue the issue of entitlement to service connection for the cause of death under the AMA in May 2024, and the Board did not have jurisdiction to adjudicate that issue in the July 2024 legacy order.
