Granted
The Board granted the restoration of the 30 percent rating for bilateral hearing loss disability effective April 22, 2021, due to a procedural error in reducing the rating.
The deciding factor: The reduction was void ab initio because the AOJ did not comply with the procedural requirements of 38 C.F.R. § 3.105(e).
