Dismissed
The appeal with respect to service connection for PTSD was dismissed due to the grant of service connection by the agency of original jurisdiction (AOJ) in September 2023. The remaining claims were remanded for further development.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the fact that the benefit sought on appeal for PTSD had been granted, leaving no case or controversy over which the Board could exercise jurisdiction.
