Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the case for further development, specifically to obtain private treatment records from NOMS University as per a joint motion by the parties.
The deciding factor: The Board erred in not providing an adequate statement of reasons or bases for its determination that there was substantial compliance with its September 2023 remand directives and must now comply with the Court's June 2025 order granting the parties' joint motion to remand.
