Partly granted
The Board granted an effective date of March 25, 2019 for service connection for left and right lower extremity peripheral neuropathy and asbestosis.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's entitlement to service connection for these conditions arose prior to the intent to file a claim on March 25, 2019, thus the effective date is set to that date.
