Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's claims for revision of an August 2006 rating decision based on clear and unmistakable error (CUE) regarding the initial 10 percent ratings assigned for residuals of undifferentiated seronegative spondyloarthropathy involving both shoulders.
The deciding factor: The Board found that there was no clear and unmistakable error in the August 2006 rating decision as it correctly applied the relevant regulations at the time, and reasonable minds could differ on whether section 4.59 applied to non-arthritis claims prior to the Court's decision in Burton.
