Dismissed
The appeal for an increased evaluation of major depressive disorder was dismissed because the veteran already received a full grant of benefits.
The deciding factor: The Board dismissed the appeal as moot since the Veteran had already been granted a 100% evaluation for major depressive disorder with an effective date of November 16, 2023.
