Denied
The Board denied the application to revise an August 2013 decision based on clear and unmistakable error (CUE) which denied service connection for nerve damage to the back and legs under 38 U.S.C. § 1151.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran did not establish CUE in the August 2013 rating decision, as there was no evidence of incorrect facts or misapplication of law at the time of the decision.
