Partly granted
The Veteran's right knee joint disability was rated at 10 percent prior to November 9, 2023. From that date until March 10, 2024, a 100 percent evaluation was granted, and from March 10, 2024, a 30 percent evaluation was granted.
The deciding factor: The Veteran's right knee disability warranted higher ratings due to the post-total knee replacement status, but not beyond those granted based on the evidence of record.
