Remanded (sent back)
The Board remanded the veteran's claims for service connection of back, neck, left knee, right knee, and right ulnar nerve disabilities due to errors in pre-decisional duty to assist.
The deciding factor: The Board found that a remand is necessary to cure pre-decisional duty to assist errors, including the lack of VA examinations and inadequate opinions.
