The appeal seeking revision of the April 2018 rating decision that assigned an evaluation of 10 percent for service-connected left foot sprain based on clear and unmistakable error (CUE) was denied.
The deciding factor: The Board found no clear and unmistakable error in the April 2018 rating decision as it correctly applied the relevant facts and regulations at the time, and the Veteran's arguments were essentially disagreements with how the evidence was weighed.
