Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the matters of earlier effective dates for a 70 percent rating for major depressive disorder with binge eating disorder, TDIU, and DEA due to a pre-decisional duty to assist error.
The deciding factor: Remand is required due to a failure to attempt to obtain relevant private treatment records from J. S., which constitutes a pre-decisional duty to assist error.
