Partly granted
The Board granted a 10 percent rating for the right knee based on limitation of motion and a 20 percent rating for the semilunar cartilage condition, but denied ratings greater than 10 percent or 30 percent for instability.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's right knee disorder was found to be manifested by painful and limited motion productive of functional loss during certain periods, while other periods did not meet the criteria for higher ratings due to limitation of motion or instability.
