Partly granted
The reduction in the rating for left knee limitation of extension from 30 percent to 10 percent was not proper, and the 30 percent disability rating is restored. Entitlement to an increased disability rating of 30 percent for left knee instability, effective June 2, 2020, is granted.
The deciding factor: The evidence does not reflect improvement in the Veteran's ability to function under ordinary conditions of life and work.
