Denied
The Board denied a staged disability rating higher than 20 percent for limited flexion of the right knee from November 13, 2023 to March 1, 2025, and a rating higher than 10 percent thereafter.
The deciding factor: The evidence did not show limitation of flexion severe enough to warrant a higher rating under Diagnostic Code 5260 for the specified periods.
