Denied
The Board denied an effective date prior to July 5, 2012, for the award of service connection for a left knee disorder.
The deciding factor: There is no evidence that a claim for compensation benefits remained pending (unadjudicated) prior to July 5, 2012, or that an exception to the general rule for effective dates under 38 C.F.R. §3.400 applies.
