Partly granted
The Board dismissed the appeals regarding proposed reductions in disability ratings for the veteran's right humerus, right scapula/clavicle, and left knee instability due to procedural defects. The Board remanded all other issues related to increased ratings and TDIU.
The deciding factor: The appeals were dismissed because the Veteran filed a Notice of Disagreement before there was an underlying rating reduction decision.
