Partly granted
The Board granted a compensable disability rating of 10 percent for both the left and right hand essential tremors, resolving reasonable doubt in favor of the Veteran.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms more closely approximated a moderate disability picture, warranting a 10 percent rating under DC 8103.
