The appeal seeking revision or reversal of the April 2020 Board decision that denied a motion to revise or reverse on the basis of CUE a November 2017 Board decision that denied service connection for bilateral knee disorders is dismissed.
The deciding factor: The September 2020 supplemental claim was improper as it sought readjudication of the April 2020 Board decision, which is not permitted with regards to Board decisions on motions and there can never be new and relevant evidence with regard to CUE decisions.

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A dismissal means the Board did not decide the issue on its merits — usually because it was withdrawn or had become moot.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.

- Granted
The Board has granted service connection for the cause of the Veteran's death, finding that side effects from prescribed medications contributed substantially and materially to his accidental motorcycle collision resulting in fatal injuries.
- Remanded (sent back)
The Board is unable to make a decision on the service connection claims without first determining whether the Appellant's misconduct was due to his psychiatric symptoms and obtaining a medical opinion regarding his mental status at the time of his misconduct.
- Remanded (sent back)
The Board has remanded the Veteran's appeal due to delays in adjudication and requests for additional evidence. The issues of service connection for left shoulder disorder, right upper extremity disorder, right hand disorder, and bilateral knee disorders are being remanded for further development.
- Partly granted
The Veteran's service connection for tinnitus was granted, while the claim for bilateral hearing loss was denied. Several other claims were remanded.
