Dismissed
The appeal with respect to service connection for PTSD was dismissed due to the Veteran being fully compensated for all of his psychiatric symptoms through a grant of service connection for unspecified depressive disorder and simple phobia.
The deciding factor: The Board concluded that there remained no case or controversy with respect to the Veteran's claim for service connection for PTSD over which it could exercise jurisdiction, as the Veteran is already being fully compensated for all of his psychiatric symptoms.
