Partly granted
The Veteran's effective date for service connection of obstructive sleep apnea was granted as May 20, 2014, and a rating of 50 percent was denied.
The deciding factor: The evidence showed that the Veteran had symptoms of sleep apnea prior to his claim but did not meet the criteria for a higher rating based on the severity of his condition.
