Denied
The Board denied the Veteran's appeal for a rating in excess of 30 percent for right upper extremity ulnar nerve impairment, finding that the evidence did not support a higher rating.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's symptoms were found to be mild and did not approximate severe incomplete paralysis as required for a higher rating under DC 8516.
