Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded the veteran's claims for service connection of right and left lower extremity radiculopathy. The Veteran will undergo a new VA examination to determine if these conditions are secondary to his service-connected lumbar spine disability.
The deciding factor: The Board remanded because the AOJ erred by not reconciling conflicting findings in the record.
