Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for a rating in excess of 20 percent for pes planus, and ratings in excess of 10 percent for left foot surgical scars and residuals of bunionectomy due to the need for an SOC.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary as the Veteran filed a timely NOD with the ratings assigned by the January 2007 rating decision and that appeal remains pending.
