Partly granted
The veteran's claim for service connection for PTSD, anger management, depression, and anxiety was granted based on new evidence. However, the claim for an acquired psychiatric disorder to include PTSD was denied because the veteran does not currently have a diagnosed psychiatric disorder.
The deciding factor: The decision hinges on whether the veteran has a current disability that is service-connected.
