Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claims for service connection for a lumbar spine disorder, right and left lower extremity nerve disorders, and scoliosis to correct duty to assist errors that occurred prior to the rating decision on appeal.
The deciding factor: Remand is necessary to address duty to assist errors in obtaining relevant private medical records and an adequate VA examination opinion regarding the Veteran's claimed conditions.
