Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the appeals to reopen claims of entitlement to service connection for a back scar and a stomach scar as new and material evidence has been received, but additional action is required due to an unaddressed hearing request.
The deciding factor: A remand is necessary to ensure compliance with the Joint Motion for Partial Remand which found that the Board erred by failing to address whether the Veteran was entitled to a hearing before the AOJ.
