Dismissed
The Board dismissed the appeal for an initial 10 percent disability rating for service-connected psychomotor epilepsy and denied increased, compensable ratings for a scar on the right forehead and service connection claims for sciatic nerve conditions in both lower extremities.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not support the presence of a current disability or that the claimed disabilities were incurred in or aggravated by active service.
