Partly granted
The veteran's claim for service connection for a left shoulder disability was granted based on new evidence. The CUE claim was dismissed because the original decision was not final.
The deciding factor: The Board found that newly received Reserve records, which documented the Veteran's left shoulder injury during her deployment in Iraq, were relevant to the claim and rendered the February 2011 rating decision non-final.
