Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded the veteran's claim for service connection of left leg amputation because the Higher-Level Review request was deemed timely.
The deciding factor: The Board found that a fax confirmation sheet and attorney's statement were sufficient to rebut the presumption of regularity, proving the request was received in December 2019.
