Partly granted
The Board granted a 20 percent rating for the service-connected right ankle sprain, but denied an increased rating in excess of 20 percent.
The deciding factor: The evidence was at least in approximate balance as to whether the Veteran's right ankle disability symptomatology more nearly approximated marked limitation of motion, and the maximum schedular evaluation available for limited motion of the right ankle had been assigned.
