The Board dismissed the Veteran's claim for a TDIU due to service-connected bilateral plantar fasciitis with degenerative arthritis as moot, given that he has already been awarded a 100% combined schedular rating.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's combined service-connected disabilities render him unable to obtain substantially gainful employment, but the claim for TDIU based solely on his bilateral plantar fasciitis with degenerative arthritis is dismissed as moot due to his already established 100% combined schedular rating.
