Remanded (sent back)
The Veteran's claims for service connection for a low back disorder and a right lower extremity nerve condition have been remanded. The Board needs more medical records to make a decision.
The deciding factor: The failure to obtain relevant private treatment records constitutes a pre-decisional duty to assist error that must be corrected by remand.
