Dismissed
The Board found that the December 1997 and January 1999 rating decisions were not the product of clear and unmistakable error (CUE).
The deciding factor: The AOJ properly considered the extant record evidence at the time of both rating decisions, and correctly applied the regulations governing the appropriate effective date for an award of service connection and disability ratings.
