Denied
The Board denied an effective date prior to November 24, 2020 for the grant of service connection for spondylolisthesis.
The deciding factor: No earlier effective date is warranted as the January 1982 rating decision that denied the Veteran's original claim is final and no new and material evidence was submitted within one year of that decision to reopen the claim.
