Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded all issues to correct pre-decisional duty to assist errors and to secure necessary examinations and medical opinions.
The deciding factor: The Veteran did not report for the scheduled hearing, so the Board can only consider evidence of record at the time of notification of AOJ decisions on appeal.
