What this means for you
A dismissal means the Board did not decide the issue on its merits — usually because it was withdrawn or had become moot. It says more about procedure than about whether a claim like this can win.

- Partly granted

- Denied
The Board denied the veteran's claims for earlier effective dates for a 70 percent rating for PTSD, TDIU, and Dependents' Educational Assistance benefits.
- Granted
The veteran's claim for service connection of grand mal seizures was granted because the Board found that his seizures are related to a head injury he suffered during active duty.
