Denied
The Board denied the appeal to reduce the appellant's VA Dependency and Indemnity Compensation (DIC) benefits, as it was determined that the reduction was proper due to an overpayment created by a previous error in payment.
The deciding factor: The decision is based on the VBA rate tables which mandate the correct payment for the appellant given her situation, despite the hardship this would cause.
