Partly granted
The appeal for service connection for PTSD was denied due to lack of new and relevant evidence. The appeals for increased ratings were dismissed because the Veteran did not file within the required timeframe.
The deciding factor: The Board found that no new and relevant evidence was submitted for the PTSD claim, and the appeals for increased ratings were untimely filed.
