Partly granted
The veteran's claim for service connection for right-sided hemiparesis residuals status post stroke was granted as secondary to a service-connected heart disability. The motion to revise the July 2018 rating decision based on CUE was dismissed without prejudice.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the evidence supported a nexus between the veteran's stroke and his service-connected heart disability, but the July 2018 rating decision was not final for CUE consideration.
